CUCV M1028 Project Part 10 - CUCV TH400 Kickdown

In the last video, we discovered why the TH400 transmission on this 1985 CUCV 6.2l diesel Squarebody was stuck in first gear. Spoiler! It was the kickdown!
In this video we will test the kickdown circuit and get it working properly again.
You can get the kickdown switch here: www.amazon.com/Wztepeng-Trans...

Troubleshooting these old square bodies is still a lot easier than all these modern laptop screen dash vehicles. And ultimately you diagnosed and repaired the problem yourself. Congratulations 🤝

I actually didn't know that existed. Have you had any issues with the vacuum pump that also fakes out the engine vacuum going to the TH400? Mine (like most) is leaking and the transmission shop I use spent two days but somehow got the system to make the transmission behave.
