Re: Computer problem???

I checked this morning and when my van selector is in 2nd it starts in 2nd and stays in 2nd. This is the basis of my original point a couple of posts ago where I suggest that it may be possible that the transmission believes that the van is actually set to 2nd.

Form Wiswind's post it looks like different resistance values are used. I think you have checked at the switch itself which is a good start. Since that seems to be okay why not try measuring at the transmission to see if the signals are stuck in one state? I do think you are on the right track.

Re: Computer problem???

Welp,

We wound up replacing the PCM, and that has apparently taken care of the problem. We've had it since Saturday, and it drives like a dream. It scared me when the check engine light came on during the initial road test, so I pulled the codes and it said the IMRC was still stuck open... something I knew of awhile back.

One thing that I wonder though... would the stuck IMRC be a contributing factor to a very slight flutter in rpm at highway speed?
