<VV> Non-Corvair Question / 1994 Thunderbird TCC solenoid replacement?

[LonzoVair at aol.com]

Hey guys,
My aunt has a 94 T-bird that has just started slipping in first gear (it's  
an automatic tranny)... she took it to a local place for free diagnostics and  
they said it was reading as a bad TCC solenoid.... and they could fix it for  
$500... how involved is this job? Is this something that just bolts up to the  
tranny, or is it inside the valve body or something major like that?
Thanks for any and all help.... I'm just trying to help my Dad's little  
sister out.... her husband isn't physically able to do anything like that, and  
they are in a bit of a bind.
Sorry for taking up precious Corvair space... which I've been driving to  
school (the 64 700) recently now that gas is almost affordable.
Later,
Lonzo
