Just make sure to clean the electrical plugs with electrical parts cleaner before you connect them back up. The TSB actually tells you to replace the plug as well if it has oil in it, but I don’t think that’s absolutely necessary as long as you can get all the oil out with the cleaner.

I agree. Actually on the solenoid unit, the manufacturing date is etched, so that's what I'll be looking for. When I was searching for the solenoid, I found an older substitute with a different part number from a toyota parts center website and said the older one was replaced by the new one that I've purchased and am waiting for.
I cleaned the connector with a brake cleaner, only to realize I should have used an electrical cleaner.
Well I cleaned all the oil anyways, so hope that's good for now. It hasn't given me CEL back, so I'm relieved a big time.
Thank you for your comment.
