TORQUE BIND WITH FUSE INSTALLED

Featured Replies

Hey all. Ive searched the forum and found that the torque bind in my 91 automatic legacy is more than likely the transfer clutch solenoid. The question I have is this: The "power" light flashes when I start the car. And if I install the FWD fuse, the light comes on, but the torque bind still exists.  I also read on here that the problem may be the clutch itself getting scored and sticking in the engaged position. Can I test the solenoid without removing it from the trans?  The fluid in this trans has NEVER gone more than 10k miles without being changed, and I change the 4 qts in the pan every 1000 miles like clockwork. Thank you!

Check the codes, because: power light flash - search on 'handshake' etc. to get the info. Or THIS>

If the FWD fuse 'works' and TB goes away, it's just the clutches = Mechanical. If it doesn't - it's @ least the Duty C solenoid = Electrical.
