well i have been ..... FOR DAYS:helpme:!
90 aw4 4.0 d30/35 W/ABS will not shift out of 1st gear.
i have gone through everything in the system. there only a couple culprites left. http://www.transonline.com/transdigest/magazines/1997-10/Shift Pointers/index.html from this i come up with 2 off readings.
1. D3~ TPS Ground. should read .1volt or less. we have .8v
2. C9~ "Drive" selector position "shifter" should read BATT. voltage. we have .8v
http://www.lunghd.com/Tech_Articles/Engine/Basic_Sensors_Diagnostics.htm
tells how to bypass the ground for the tps. repeatively, also states to check over all the motor grounds."done" so we went from the firewall to terminal "B" on the tps as stated. came up with the same reading.
i may need a more in-depth explaination of this procedure.
i'll stop here an go over everything we've done.
TCU.
unplugged we get manual shift. "its electrical." checked the inline fuse. fuse at the block, tested for power. all good. Replaced TCU with a known working one. nothing;shift solinoids.
replaced and reading in spec "11-15," all 3. nothing
TPS.
tested, adjusted. no change. Replaced, readjusted. in spec. nothing
Throdle valve cable.
Checked and adjusted.nothing
NSS.
Removed, cleaned, reinstalled, adjusted.
http://www.go.jeep-xj.info/HowtoNSSrebuild.htm
Shift linkage.
checked and adjusted. nothing
Motor/Engion Grounds.
checked, added grounds to both just to be shure.nothing.
Now. refering back to the off reading on C9. i should have batt voltage with the shifter in drive. we don't. but we do get it with the shifter in the "3" slot.
is it possible to be so slightly out of adjustment on the NSS/shift linkage that it will start only in "P" and "N", nowhere else. still have lights in "R" and cause this specific problem?
I have no idea what to do about the D3 reading of .8v how do i get it down, keep the tps adjusted in spec, and get the correct reading? like i said before we bypassed it from the firewall to terminal "B" and i tried both harnesses just to be sure. the readings stay the same but the truck won't idle down below 2k. this im stumped on and could use some help to understand.
i know i'm going the right direction. i just cant seem to find the missing link.
plz plz:helpme:. were going nutz.
thx alot yall
