HI All,

You'll be pleased to know that my truck is functional once again - leak bypassed and running well - well sort of! Since the coolant leak was fixed I now have an issue with the transmission. Sometimes it sticks in first gear - as if the computer is confused. Does anyone know if this could be related to disconnecting the batteries for too long any suggestions?

 

hello there. you have to check the odometer.if the odometer does not work, check the speed sensor,in the transmission.
to check the sensor for continuity.sorry for my English.

 

Hi,

Thanks. I will check the sensor - perhaps just needs a clean. Will keep you posted.

Thanks Again.

 

Hey guys,

Thought I would let you know that after cleaning the speed sensors, the truck still won't shift properly! Computer says error 85 and 86 which both are to do with the sensors! Manual says if not the sensors then a whole list of other problems could be! Anyone had any experience like this before? - I guess I should open a new blog as this one's getting long!

 

The two issues aren't related.

 

hello there.well i had this 4 months problems trying to find the problem in my trans.first i change the filter,no good,then i checked the fuses,all good.so i checked the speed sensor and bingo!that was the problem.did you get the trans. wet? because if the speed sensor get wet,does not work properly.check for continuity between the contacts.

change trans filter.

check the speed sensor fuse.
