Replaced motor in my 94 celica gt with a 96 gt. (THANK YOU SOO MUCH 96gtok!!!) My transmission went out. Put in tranny out of 94 gt.
At first it would do nothing in reverse so we thought we were going to have to replace it again. The fuse for my windows blew about the same time, n when we replaced that, reverse magically started working. Coincidence? I took off down the road, my speedometer went out in about half a mile. My RPMs freaked out because of this. My car seemed to die so I pulled off the road and tried to take it back home. It wouldnt work in reverse again, and now nothing happened in drive. Turned it off and screamed for a few seconds, then tried again. It worked fine. Made it to the top of the hill and it did the same thing. I can drive about a mile before I have to turn it off and back on. The transmission is pulling fluid up through the filter, just not returning it. Evidence points to a possible wiring issue.... Any help or thoughts? This post has been edited by homeboy: Sep 13, 2009 - 10:48 AM |

from what he described he was getting no upper gears and inconsistent reverse and when running the fluid was not in the pan? or it was but got higher when it was turned off? i'm not sure what the hell he's saying really.
he says the trans fluid is getting sucked up the trans and then just vanishes? -------------------- |

The fluid is getting sucked up, but not returning when its running. you turn the car off, it all drains back out into the pan. thats how the mechanic described it. the fluid level wasnt low, meaning it would need fluid. we turned the car off and immediately checked the level, and it was saying it was high. QUOTE (trdproven @ Sep 15, 2009 - 11:36 PM) well you are talking about the shift solenoids sensors, I have a write up here in case you want reference. but make sure you are checking the fluid level after its been running hot or warm, not when it is cold and parked. Thats how the transmission ATF is checked. we turned the car off and immediately checked the level, and it was saying it was high. |
