We have our pneumatics system all connected. We are using SMC single solenoid valve SY3140-6LZ with the SY3000-27-1T subplate. We put in the gasket and mount the valve on the subplate with the screws provided.

The manual seems to say connect air supply to P and connect A to one end of cylinder and connect B to other end of cylinder. We are using it to shift the AM shifter transmission. It seems to be working. In one position, it is okay. However when we switch to the other position, air starts coming out slowly but constantly from EA or EB which I assume are the exhuast ports. We tried to plug that port but then we can not shift.

What are we doing wrong? Can somebody please help?
