okay the tranny trouble ppl are complaning about it goin out of gear and goin back in is a ****ty selinod mine is doin the same thing and when the tranny goes into limp mode or the check engine light comes after u fix the problem all dodges and chryslers do this un hook the battery for 5 min it resets everything U know im only 20 years old and i know this when u have problems it helps to go to a local vocational school and talk to the teachers they know all these lil tricks or talk to me ill find them out i go to the college of technologies for cars i do high po and alt fuels plus general automotive so before u got out buyin new trannys test the selinoids and check the valve body inexpensive lil things

 

If you are having transmission problems, You'll need to pull codes out of the trans controller and post.

 

i cant pull codes cuz guess what there is no code it doesn't throw a check engine light it just stops yes there is a computer linked to the tranny but it doesn't give u codes it just tells the transmission what to do it isn't as high tech as the new cars are so if i could get a code i would why do u think pullin the batt cables off cancels the limp mode so i think i have a lill more understanding then u do and im only 20 years old and a female and i have worked in a tranny shop so thank u very much learn about the car before u ask for codes on a car that don't have any tranny codes.

 

Well I have a 96 Dodge Avenger ES 2.5L and my transmission doesn't go into 4th gear, so on the expressway the RPM are very high past about 50mph. I took it to AAMCO and they did a trans scan and it gave up no codes. Do you have any hunches as to why it shifts just fine at low speeds but doesn't go into overdrive for fourth gear?

 

Do you have Reverse lights ??? Dodge in their infinite wisedom tied the O/D Voltage thru the reverse light fuse / no reverse light /no voltage to the O/D circuit

 

yes the reverse lights are tired to the over drive also ur button may be shorted out and it tells the car its off

 

okay so has anyone ever herd of a soleniod pack b/c obviously there is a filter underneath the pack and they clog so if ur car jumbs out of gear either the pack is bad or that filter is clogged and if u need to know how to rebuild this packs send me a message and ill walk u threw this as i use to do this as a job

 

Yes they do have filters, But thats all i do is just clean them. If there is a pressure circuit fault, then i replace the whole solenoid pack.

okay sweetie little lesson on tranny's usually when they slip when going into gear and tranny's are not like engines they are hard to rebuild the tranny is probley junk the clutches in there are probley fried they weren't built to handle the abuse of young ppl so i would try to get a diffrent tranny or find some one who can rebuild it
