1. Separator Plate Information a. #33 plate and body:
Figure 1
OE TCC Switch Valve Train
The #46, 82, 96 and 99 separator plate and valve body may be used to replace a bad #33 assembly. A common complaint of no TCC or engine stumble from TCC drag occurs on worn #33 units. b. #96 or #99 plate and body: Valve bodies with #96 or #99 plates are equipped with a larger diameter TCC control valve located in the bore next to the converter regulator valve under retainer #5 (Figure 1). This larger diameter reduces the OEM concern of TCC cycle during low speed EMCC. It is suggested you update to these later valve bodies whenever possible.
OE TCC Switch Valve Train Replaced by Sonnax Valve Kit TCC Control Valve
The OEM converter regulator valve regulates converter release oil but not converter apply pressure. Excess TCC apply pressure deforms the converter piston; the lining disintegrates, plugging the filter and cooler, resulting in lube failure. The Sonnax valve is designed to limit apply pressure and converter release oil. The Sonnax valve can be used in all valve bodies except those with a #33 separator plate. ©2016 Sonnax Industries, Inc. 800-843-2600 • 802-463-9722 • F: 802-463-4059 • www.sonnax.com

NOTE: Do NOT remove retainer No. 4.
B-1 Open Orifice to 1/16" (.0625")
b. Discard the OE switch valve but retain the OE bias valve sleeve and the bias valve spring, as these will be reused. c. Install the Sonnax switch valve into the valve body bore as shown (Figure 2). Install the rounded spool inboard toward the inner clip and the flat spool facing outboard toward the bias valve.
This valve is compatible with #46, 82, 96 and 99 plates.
d. Put the OE bias valve spring onto the end of the Sonnax bias valve and install into the OE bias valve sleeve.
This valve is NOT compatible with #33 plate.
e. Install the bias valve assembly into the valve body bore and retain it with OE retainer No. 5.

Drivability Effects and Adjustment Sonnax 92835-03K alters TCC application by preventing spikes in apply pressure, which can damage the converter piston. Extensive and successful road-testing of the Sonnax valves with plate designations #46, 82, 96 and 99 have shown a TCC apply that is shorter than OEM and a reduction in shudder complaints. This kit controls apply and release pressure, flow rate on apply, and EMCC modulation. ©2016 Sonnax Industries, Inc. 800-843-2600 • 802-463-9722 • F: 802-463-4059 • www.sonnax.com
