I want to know if a backyard mechanic could replace a epc solenoid in a transmission? I guess I want to know how difficult this might be?

The installation of the epc solenoid need some steps
1. To Remove: Remove two 8mm bolts retaining manual
lever position sensor (MLPS) to case. Remove MLPS from
manual shaft, (Figure 1).
2. Remove one 8mm bolt retaining manual lever detent
spring and roller assembly to the valve body.
3. Remove manual shaft roll pin.
4. Using a 13/16" open-end wrench on the inner nut and a
12mm wrench on the manual shaft flats, loosen the inner nut.
Slide the manual shaft partially out of the case to complete
removal of the inner nut.
5. Remove manual shaft, rooster comb and park pawl rod
from case.
6. Remove one 8mm bolt holding the EPC (Electronic Pressure
Control) solenoid bracket and discard OEM retaining bracket.
Disconnect EPC wires and remove solenoid.
7. To Install: Before attempting to install the EPC solenoid,
grease the snout to prevent a-rings from rolling off. Install
EPC with Teckpak's retaining bracket (Figures 2 & 3). Reuse
the OEM bolt. Connect vehicle wiring harness to the new
76923 EPC solenoid.
8. Reinstall manual shaft and rooster comb with park pawl
rod in the case. Install inner nut on manual shaft. Using a
13/16" open-end wrench, tighten the inner nut while holding
the manual shaft with a 12mm wrench.
9. Make sure the manual valve and the rooster comb are
properly lined up, and install the manual shaft retaining pin.
Install manual lever detent spring and roller with one 8mm
retaining bolt. Shift to make sure mechanism is free
10. Install MLPS and adjust according to the manufacturer's
specifications.
11. Test drive the vehicle to perform shift test. After driving
the vehicle, it may be necessary to make the shift firmer or
softer. To accomplish this, adjust the force motor solenoid.
You will need a 3/8" and 5/8" wrench.
If you feel free and can handle these steps then you can replace the epc solenoid, whether you have the accountability to handle.
