RE5R05A:RE5R05A: A Deeper Look Part IIA DeeperLook PART IISPEAKERby Mike Souzamembers.atra.comwww.atra.comFigure 1Another year, another Expo;I’m looking forward to seeing some of my old friendsfrom all over the country and abroad.Hopefully there’ll be some new faces,as fewer young techs have been findingtheir way into this industry.For this issue, I’ve collected someof the most valuable reference information for the RE5R05A, and put it alltogether in one place for you. We startwith a cutaway view of the transmission to identify the component loca-4tions (figure 1).Figures 2 and 3 are applicationcharts for the floor shift and columnshift models. They’re followed by thesolenoid apply chart (figure 4), including solenoid function.Figures 5 through 11 are thehydraulic diagrams for this unit; hardto find, but isn’t that why you dependon ATRA and GEARS?This compiled information shouldmake it easier for you to understand anddiagnose the RE5R05A. Knowing whatapplies when, and what valve controlswhich hydraulic circuit, should makeit easier to diagnose a shift problem ortrack down a circuit leak.GEARS September 2010
