I have a 1996 Toyota Camry. Recently the transmission went and a used
Japanse Transmission was installed which had low km. I know get a
check engine light P0770 Shift solenoid E or torque converter lockup
circuit malfunction. The old solenoid was pressure tested and failed
to hold 70psi. A new solenoid from Toyota was installed and the check
engine light has come back on in the vehicle. What should I do next,
inspect the wiring to and from the solenoid or could it be a problem
with gum or residue in the valve body?

besides the engine light, what problem do you experience on your
transmission?

When the check engine light came back on after the shift solenoid was
replaced, did you check to see if the same trouble code returned? Are there
any symptoms?

Try switching the shift solenoids within the transmission and see if the
code changes.

Take it to a competent technician, who has the proper test equipment, and
have it repaired, WBMA. When one buys used parts, they take their chances.
Just like when one buys a used car. ;)
