Wrong,it does affect O.D..The tcu needs input from the N.S.S to verify what gear the selector is in

Try going around and locking and unlocking the doors with the key and then try to start it.

you said it is in security mode,could that be why its starting up and shutting down?

Its normal for the fan to kick on when you unplug the temp sensor.when you turn the a/c on is the compressor kicking on?For that part of the fan circut to run,the compressor must run also.The temp must get over 225 degrees before the fan runs,so are you sure the engine is running hot enough?

Quadratech has Superior gear sets.

Is it chewing the the rear tires off or having premature u-joint failure?

Parts stores ive looked at carry 2 different oil senders,one for a gauge and one for a light.Thats what I was going by.I was agreeing with you that the simplest way was to change the cluster.He just MIGHT have to change the oil sender.

Any 97+ 4.0 won't have the sender at the back of the head.It was all incorporated to run off the one in the thermostat housing,and the gauge gets its signal from the computer.

You will have to change the oil pressure sensor,but as far as i can see the temp sensor/sender is the same.

If you have the original motor in your 98,then you dont have the rear sensor.96 was the last year for the temp sender at the back of the head.

Yeah,but it is GF-4 rated, so it is not good for our engines,unless you get an ZZDP( zinc dithiophosphate)additive for it.

Dude,that's normal.The fluctuation is the thermostat opening and closing.

What numbers was the codes they pulled?

no, the one on the back of the head is for the gauge. it has a single wire.

no,FRONT drivers side.And it is torqed less than the others
