Need help with 2001 Honda Civic solenoids

Hello. New here.
Just found out that my shift solenoids need to be replaced. I'm not a mechanic, but I am pretty good with my hands. I need help locating the solenoids. I have an idea where they might be, but not 100% sure. I have tried to look for/buy the right part, but I am having trouble with finding the correct one online. Purchased a part yesterday, but I guess it was the wrong piece (filter for solenoid not whole part?). I have pictures of which parts I think I need to buy, but the price difference is extremely different. I don't want to but the wrong part again. Any help and or advice is greatly appreciated!

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Could you be more specific?
There's about 5 solenoids and 3 speed sensors to choose from.
Got fault code numbers?



You say it's an 01, that means it probably needs a trans replacement though.

Re: Need help with 2001 Honda Civic solenoids

I was told transmission shift solenoids, possibly linear. No fault code numbers. But I am going to try to get more information tomorrow.
The transmission seems to be fine. Fluid looks good, not dark, not burnt, no flakes.
