Transmission won't shift out of first gear
#11
i am having the same issues. i only get up to about 20. only in first gear, wont shift out of it. the abs light is on, but it has been on. speedo works, everything is good, just replaced the vss. topped it off with fluid. i dont know what to do. and i dont have much money to dump in it. anyone???

cel is on. no way to get it all the way into town to check it. over last 2 weeks cel is on and off. bout 3 weeks ago i had the codes pulled. said misfire in no 3 cylinder. havent had a chance to get by an auto parts store.
is there any way to check it without a scanner? ( i used to have a honda, it had a wire harness on the passengers side that u had to short. odometer would blink code for the cel code #. )

well. drove it into town. the only check engine light is for the misfire. the guy at oreilys told me it could be a transmission speed sensor. is there one? where is it? i have already replaced the vss. or is it a wheel speed sensor? which one controlls the shifting of the transmission. also the cel blinks sometimes??? what does that mean

The newer models use the the output speed sensor in the back (drivers side) of the transmission (or transfer case for 4wd) as the wheel sensor. So they're one and the same. Usually this is either a bad speed sensor or a worn out trans.
Rarely severe emissions problems will put it into "limp mode" but will usually barely run at all.

If you replaced the vss sensor on transfer case and u still have abs and/or engine lite come on, I would Chk connections on all vss's. find out what the troubleshooting codes are as well.. If alls well in those areas ur abs modulator/pump may b the problem. I have the modulator/pump model. Chk those connections carefully. (The abs mod/pump is loc on drvr side next to master cylinder). Worse case is bad modulator.
