I had a 92 Chevy Beretta, wich has pretty much the same transmission and same problems. After replacing the Lock out solinoid 3 times a friend of mine who is a mechanic let me in on a secret. Disconnect it. The wiring harness for it should be located on the front of the tranny. It will not affect the performance of the car, but may lower you gas milage by about a mile city/highway. If you need any other help, My name is Dominick and can be reached at Dombear74@gmail.com

What is lockup solenoid?
Lockup Solenoids refer to electronic gadgets in automatic transmissions that lock the torque converter in certain circumstances, such as at highway speeds.
Do you torque the flex plate to convertor on c4 automatic transmission?
All fasteners have a torque spec suggested by the manufacturer. You will find that information in the shop manual for the vehicle.
Your 98 contour2.0 zetec automaticshudders real bad when in any gear except park esp when stopped at a redlight any ideas?
this usually indicates an internal transmission problem, but possibly only the torque convertor, or torque convertor lockup solonoid, also, you want to check to make sure all of the motor & transmission mounts are good.
92 vigor im having your transmission rebuilt your mechanic says that you also have to have the tur converter replaced What is that?
The torque convertor acts as an automatic clutch for the transmission. If you are replacing the transmission, I would recommend replacing the convertor too, especially if the trans fluid is burnt or contaminated. If you have a manual transmission, run, there is no torque convertor :)
Why does an automatic transmission jerk while changing gears?
The "lockup torque converter" could be engaging too soon. Take it to a transmission shop to have it diagnosed.

No. You have a 32RH transmission. It is a 3-speed automatic with a lockup torque converter, no overdrive gear.
When traveling over 40mph the TCC locks up should you feel a grind when this happens or should it lockup in a smooth matter?
The lockup should be farily smooth, if you hear a grinding noise, you have somethng wrong with the torque convertor or transmisssion. If the car has a lot 150k or so it's time to see a good transmission shop.
Where is the lock up solenoid on a axn4 transmission it is not getting a signal and it will not shift in to over drive?
The lockup solenoid does not control OD shift. The lockup solenoid controls torque convertor lockup. Torque converter lockup isn't a gear at all, but a fuel saving function that kicks in when you are cruising, which is a clutch in the torque converter that locks down and overrides the fluid coupling so you dont loose engine engine torque due to the normal fluid coupling of the torque converter. In effect, it overrides the torque converter completely, and provides a direct drive from the engine to the input shaft of the transmission. TC lockup does occur in OD, but it is a separate function. OD is achieved in the AX4N when the OD band holds the front planetary sun gear stationary. This is done by the OD servo and piston assembly, when fluid is directed there through a valve in the valve body. You could have a problem in any of those areas causing you not to have OD.
What would cause a 82 F150 engine to stall when put in gear automatic trans?
It could be that the torque convertor is locked and not slipping which it should do as the normal operation

What fluid goes in a torque conyerter And how much?
The torque convertor uses transmission fluid and is filled by the transmission's internal pump. When you start out with a new convertor, it's a good idea to put a quart of fluid in before installing it on the transmission. When the transmission dipstick shows full, the convertor is also full. An empty torque convertor holds several quarts, depending on the size.
