Need wiring diagram 2003 forester automatic tranny..need to move pins around as tranny we put in must be different from orig one we replaced..we pulled codes on new tranny and they say open or short circuit..pressure control solenoid A & B..Shift /timing solenoid.. pressure control solenoid..shift solenoid A & B..Or is this just the wrong tranny for this car?

should be able to find free FSM's online.  i think you're right on the money comparing the wiring harnesses and looking for TCU differences.

 

CNY_Dave found one wiring change from 2002 - 2003 H6 transmissions he's mentioned a few times on here, it was the solenoid in the rear extension housing I think, not sure if it's still called a "Duty C solenoid" for H6 transmissions or not. Anyway, so that could be it, maybe there were other changes?  May want to find his thread commenting on that.

 

*** Just to be sure - is it possible the same problem you were trying to repair is still there and the transmission wasn't the problem to begin with?

In other words - symptoms before trans swap and symptoms after - maybe both trans were good and something else was bad?
