Then your car is in "limp mode." It could either be the TCU, or something amiss with the transmission its self.

When you send you TCU off for rebuild, I'd recommend getting the ECU checked out at same time, as well as the ECS computer (if equipped). All three units have the same capacitors that start to leak with age.

Hi Daisy!! I was wondering when they put your car on the diagnostic machine to see what was wrong was it able to read what was wrong with the transmission!! Or did it say can't read(no data)?? Nobody seems to be able to get a reading on my transmission!! Thanks!!

Here is the procedure for pulling codes from your ECU. http://www.stealth316.com/2-diagcodes91-93.htm

The only one referencing the TCU is code #19.
