Dead transmission WG 4,7 V8 1999->zmei 03-04-2005, 08:37 AM Hi ppl, I desperately need help, here`s the problem: The jeep was O.K. -> one week not in use -> the battery was low -> the engine started hardly, all electrical equipment blinked to death, the CD/RC/tuner forgot its code AND the transmission was dead.... not a sign of movement neither in R or D, the oil level is equal with engine running and stopped - seems like the torque converter is not moving at all; there were seven error codes - five for the engine and two for the tranny, after resetting, one for the tranny is persistent - the oil pressure detector is out; does any of this sound familiar to any one, any advice - where is situated this oil pressure thing, how to short-circuit it, or this is not the real problem ?!? HELL WITH THE ELECTRONICS :) Cam7 03-06-2005, 03:50 AM What was the code number?? Dr. Eagle 03-06-2005, 01:19 PM We did have a problem with our 00 GC, I think it was the shaft position sensor... not sure. The sensor repair cost about 300 bucks. zmei 03-11-2005, 02:53 PM thanks for these posts :) any attempt to help is appreciated. the real problem was qiute different :) the stupid electronic had misguided me - the oil pressure detector was "O.K.", but there wasn`t any oil pressure - oil pump was dead, leading the whole transmission to the hell :) it was 73K km... so: new oil pump, new torque converter, new clutching kit - approx. 2500$, another 350$ to the mechanic... the question to the electronics is: why this wasn`t prevented.... anyway this was the first and the last Jeep I`ve ever owned :) I`ll continue to buy only Mercedes, biult until 1995 :) Automotive Network, Inc., Copyright ©2012
