Solenoid failure would be rectified by replacing the solenoids or replacing the whole transmission. I doubt that the wiring between the trans and the ECU is to blame - if it was faulty wiring outside...

I should point out that the reason for the larger final gear in the camry is because of the larger wheels. A celica and a camry driving down the highway at same speed in final gear should actually be...
