Is my transmission stuffed??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 May be worth testing the TPS if the diesels use them. How's the transmission fluid? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nooks Posted June 30, 2013 Author Share Posted June 30, 2013 Kingman: that's alot for that the tranny fluid is full so the TPS is hopefully the reason this is happening I'll check it out. Also would u have any idea why the gear selector inside the car is getting really hot??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Towncivilian Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 What is the color and smell of the fluid? Does it smell burnt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nooks Posted July 1, 2013 Author Share Posted July 1, 2013 Car doesn't have a TPS so I've ordered a transmission kit and I'll see how it goes after that and some new trans oil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slartibartfast Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 There's a testing procedure in the FSM to pull codes from the transmission computer, so you might give that a shot. (I'm assuming that the diesel trans and gas trans are the same thing in a different package.) The hot selector stick is a weird one. If it's the transfer case shifter, check the fluid in the transfer case. Either the whole trans is overheating or there's a problem there. If it's the PRND21 selector... that's hooked up by a cable, there's no way the trans can really heat it short of heating the floor under it. I have heard of people feeling heat from the transmission tunnel. The only time I've noticed heat coming from mine was when I tried driving it with the transfer case boot removed, and hot air coming off the engine came in and just about seared the hairs off my leg.
