is the check engine light on??

[autply96]

yes the check engine light on. also i put to the scaner and i get the code p1698 no transmission ccd message

[hundahunta]

probably best going to the dealer

Did you use ATF+4 fluid????

Check the wiring connection at the solenoid pack for moisture, tranny fluid or looseness. Also take the connector off the TCM and check for corrision.

Do a search using limp mode and you may find some more tips.

My EATX relay went south on me one time back. Transmission went into limp mode. I took it to a WELL KNOWN auto transmission shop & it took them a hole day to tell me it was an "electrical problem". They wanted to keep it another day so that they could determine what was wrong. I decided to take it home.

At the house I realized I did not her the usual noises from the solenoid pack when I shifted it into gear. I swapped the relay with the fuel pump relay & it would BARELY idle. I went to the auto parts store & purchased a new relay, about $7.00. Was back to normal!

The ATX relay was defective, When I swapped it with the fuel pump relay it was not getting enough voltage to the fuel pump.

Looking at TRNW page:

The one entry there says the EATX relay is the problem.

no I did not use atf+4 but i 'm going to change to see what happen .

[hundahunta]

this is not a fluid, or mechanical issue it is an electrical issue

[peterjon1]

No matter what is causing his problem, he certainly needs to get whatever wrong fluid was used out of there and replace with atf+4 (or +3, if there is any available.) Anything but either of those fluids will kill the tranny for sure, if it isn't already.

[hundahunta]

what kind of fluid did his use...its says what fluid to use right on the dipstick????

[peterjon1]

Don't know - but he says it was not atf+4

Peter, You raise a good point. I only use dealer transmission and P.S. fluids in my cars. I've been burnt in the past and so it's worth a little extra money for peace of mind. Only exception, was that when I flushed my vovlo's tranny, I uses mobel 1 synch. stuff. That's because the dealer said it was better.

Best Regards,
