Hi, I'm having a problem. Ill give you the symptoms and maybe you can give me some answers? OK i bought my pathy 1 week ago and i love it BUT i think there might be a grounding problem... - consider it as the "condition".
We will start with the tempature gauge. When the "condition" is active the temp gauge will be very high almost to the H.. WHEN its off the scale past the H is when it causes problems. When the temp gauge shows past the H the overdrive will kick off(meaning 4 gear lockup) so i jump to around 3100 rpms at 50 mph. Make the lights dim and many other weird things.
This is the funny part:
When the temp gauge is high almost to the H but not past the H : it will shift normally, UNITL I,
1. Turn the turn signals on - this makes me laugh because it will make the temp gauge jump from high under the H to the roof past the H back and forth- which also shifts 4th gear and lockup back and forth.
2. push the electic window buttons - this will drain power?and cause the gear to shift odd and radio fuzz
3. Punch the automatic shifter - playing with this makes the temp gauge jump all over the place.
the list goes on but i have a hard time keeping track and describing well but i think i got to the point.
I beleive this could be a VOLTAGE or GROUND problem because of all the random related problems that all come back to power. BUT im a computer man not a car man. Give me some idea whats going wrong or start a Q and A to diagnos the problem.
-Thank You in advance-
