About Gary J. Meyer II
Expertise
The types of questions I can answer would be related to Honda automobile diagnosis and repair procedures. I can't diagnose every car via email because some tests just require a good old fashion road test.
Experience
I am a Honda automobile technician with twenty years of new car dealership experience. My first few years as a Honda tech date back to when Honda cars were still offered in carburated models. In the last few years, I've been exposed to the integration of hybrid powered cars, the Natural Gas powered GX Civic, and electronic features ranging from voice activated GPS navigation to power sliding doors. I have been certified as an ASE Master Technician and passed the L1 Advanced Engine Performance test in 2000. I opened my own independent import repair shop specializing in but not limited to Honda automobiles in 2008. Operating my own shop has re-energized my enthusiasm for automobiles.

Honda - 96 Odyssey Automatic transmission
Expert: Gary J. Meyer II - 10/23/2009
Question
The check engine lite is on and the D4 shift indicator lite blinks. A read of the code says shift solenoid or bad electrical connection. The transmission stays in 4th gear when the shift selector is in the D4 position, unless you move the shift selector to 1 to start going. Does this sound like a shift solenoid? If so there seems to be an upper and a lower solenoid, which one is the problem?
Answer
If you have a transmission code stored follow the troubleshooting flow chart for that code. You'll need a DVOM , a service manual or AllData, and a decent understanding of the transmission's operation under normal conditions to diagnose this failure.
