I just got new tires and hit a big bump and only had 1st gear.replaced the plastic bushing and half washer on shift cable Then was driving about 30 mins ok then just had 1st gear all of a sudden. 2008 chyrsler Sebring convertible 3.5 never again.👎 sensor's then gone.😂
@ Easy Autofix Sir the car transmission is making whinning noise and delays in shifting gears, I checked for the fuel level is Ok, I checked for the oil still fresh not burned, I checked for any leaks no any leaks, I open the pan, but there were no any metal shavings on the magnets no any particles on the fluid, I decided to change the transmission filter, I checked and open the valve body no any clogs on the passages, I removed all solenoids I tested them all, and one was not working, I changed it with new one, I put back everything I test drive the vehicle no more whinning noise at all and gears are changing smoothly, but after two days as i drive reaching speed of 100 mph, the whinning noise started again, and the car struggles to exceed speed of 100mph, the RPM goes high and the speed is not achieved, I checked fluid level is OK. what can be the problem, and what can be done sir? Kindly help with ideas.
My O/D light keeps flashing on my ford f150 year 2000 and yes when I shift my gears on N/D/R etc it gives this jerk motion is that the solenoid or speed sensor?
How do I tell if it's just the solenoid switch, or the entire transmission? Because I hope it's the former because replacing just the solenoid would be much cheaper than replacing the whole tranny.
You need to replace the Sputnik vacuum valve under the transmission picke plate. Its easy to spot, because it's right behind the gear nook. Hope this helps👍
Thank you! Perfectly explained. I believe this is my problem on our 2003 Lincoln Navigator. So bad, last week it had to be flat bedded home (rainy wet day). Engine light, Overdrive warning light, engine missing, Codes galore. Bad... A couple days later, I go out to start checking out what could be wrong, boom, Truck starts up, runs smooth, trans engages, and I drive it for a few miles with no issues. I am afraid to drive it far from home, in case the problem comes back. Any advice?
My 2001 lesabre started with severe delayed shifting, first to second wasn't bad but second to third would slam into gear, I did some research and found that this was a known problem on some lesabre models. The temporary fix if you can call it that is to shut the car off which resets the module, leave it off for a couple of minutes then it shifts normally again until it does it again, sometimes it lasts for a bit but then the problem comes back, with close to 300,000 miles it was time to replace all five solonoids. I purchased all five as a package deal off eBay, all OEM parts, the first thing is to prepare the patient by raising the rear and front of the car, I used ramps on the rear and jacked up the front as high as I could because you need to lower the subframe and remove the strut cv axle and everything necessary to gain access to the side cover of the transmission. Remove the cover and it's relatively easy after that except for one thing, the wiring harness that connects the solonoids together, from being heated and cooled a million times the clips that hold the connectors are more brittle than Bob Barkers back, one broke on me and there's no real way to secure it thst I felt confident with. I went to my local Buick dealer and go my surprise they still made the harness, and it could be mine for the poultry sum of 350.00 dollars. I told him I'd let him know, went home and low and behold I found one on eBay for 25 bucks, the only thing was that now I had to wait almost a week with the car in pieces taking up my driveway. I received the part put everything back together and prayed. That was about five years ago and she's been shifting perfect ever since, all told parts, the side cover gasket was the most, second to the solonoids at 55 bucks, all five solonoids were 75 from eBay,,the whole job was around maybe 175 including trans fluid, you loss a lot from the side cover, I also removed and replaced the trans filter while I was at it. I've been working on cars for almost 40 years now, I wouldn't recommend doing if yourself for a beginner but then again, everybody has to start somewhere, power tools aren't necessary but they make the job to faster, with hand tools it's a lot of nuts and bolts to remove.
appreciate your comments....Have an05 LeSabre. Sometimes rough bump after initial shift into drive. Five solenoids? Saw a separate reference about 4 solenoids..wonder what the 5th one is. Could u mention the specific seller on Ebay? Thanks for t your excellent post..jP
Thank you so much young man. I have a 2016 Ford Focus and had the clutch replaced and my car is still experiencing these symptoms and by watching your video I realized my car is going into limp mode. The dealership will not fix anything else other than the clutch that’s under warranty unless I cough up some more money. Thank you!
I have a 2020 Chevy Tahoe with 85,000 miles experiencing the same problem what you just described how much time it will approximately take and do I need to put the same transmission fluid or new one thanks 😊
Before running out and buying those solenoids try replacing the Transmission Control Module that is located inside the air filter box, (Chevy Impala) no tools required and it fixed my problem. They will run you about $20 at the salvage yard, fault P0700.! It takes 5 minutes to replace! You're Welcome
@@markolsen7438 that depends. An older GM sure,a new one no thank you. Buy a toyota,with proper maintenance,will last forever. Fuck made in America bullshit pride
Right on brother ' you've given me hope. 👍 As I drive my 2009 F-150 4×4, the automatic transmission will shift into first gear smoothly, it shifts into second smoothly, then it clunks sharply into third gear at around 35 to 40 mph. Viewing your video, I'm hoping it is something as simple as a solenoide. Thanks again 👍🙏
@@Francofit nope still driving it like this feels like it’s getting worse haha I’ll buy a junkyard trans and swap the parts the valve body and solenoids. If that doesn’t work I’m screwed lol but it should
How much does it cost to fix this item at a dealership? I'm a widow, I can't do this myself. I have job interviews to get to before I can afford to fix it, or pay rent. Thank you for the video. It explains what the truck just did. Take care, stay safe, have a nice day. 👵✌️🖖
Toyota dealership tried to say my transmission needs to be replaced. I said no thanks....... Just change the fluid, strainer, gaskets and shift solenoid. 260 k mile tundra Guess what Runs like I just drove it off the showroom floor!🙏✌
I have 2005 ford focus, no reverse or barely can go forward! When in N I cannot push it backwards, but can push forwards. I am not getting any codes? Any information? Could it still be a solenoid?
Do you always get a code for a shift solenoid? My trans stays stuck in a gear. It doesn't act like a slipping transmission to me. It's a 2003 Ford F-250 with a 6.0
So my 2012 chevy malibu ls 2.4, I drive every morning and it's good for a couple miles, all the gears shift and everything but after a little bit it'll only stay in 1st n 2nd gear???
I have a 2000 lexus gs300. I can not shift out of park without pressing the release switch. Also i can not shift from neutral to reverse without pressing the release button. Its not the brake switch i already replaced that. Any help would be appreciated
2 days ago my older 2000 F250 (only 136,000 miles on it) went "clunk" and the whole truck lurched - then it was like it was stuck in a low gear. I still had to drive a mile home - it did this 3 more times, lurching like it was about to stop, stuck in a low gear and higher rpm's - but it got me and my groceries home - and I haven't touched it since. Least now I know what to tell the mechanic. Thanks.
Thanks, is it possible to get this kind of issue without having the check engine lights on and detected on the scanner? My car has similar symptoms but nothing being detected when it scanned
@@anggadwikara6881 I didn’t replace them because of the fact of not getting codes but I researched a lot can’t find the main video I seen but I’ll find it for you but this may help wanted to try today but it started to rain I will update you when I put the ground wire on to see if it works
I’ve got a 2014 Grand Cherokee, Symptom is limp home mode in cold temp ~ 25 deg F. Once I warm up the car, turn off and back on again the transmission works fine. Do you think this could just be that I need new fluid or an early sign of solenoid failure?
I have a 2010 nissan rogue cvt level is good but 80% of the time when shifting from P to R or D it shifts pretty hard, any idea if a bad valve body could be the culprit? (Mounts are good)
Hello everyone. I'm wondering if you could help me to help my dad. His work van is a 2001 Econoline2001 e350 it won't go into drive it only will go into neutral Park and reverse. He took it to a shop and paid $200 just for them to look at it and they told him he needed a new transmission. The person that sold it to him told him to never let anybody tell him it was the transmission if that happened that it was the solenoids. The linkage being loose. Does anybody know anything about this at all I've looked everywhere and I can't seem to find anything
I have a 6l80e and 2-3 slips sometimes but smooth on highway or if I’m giving it enough gas. Changed fluid and it’s still the same not better or worse. Trans never overheats. Always stays 140-180
@@smashadams85100 nah not in my case unfortunately. Now im waiting to change trans fluid and adding a bottle of that seafoam transtune and see of that helps. Adding some tomy existing fluid seemed to have helped some
I’m currently having this problem with the same transmission, my fluid was burned and it wasn’t much of it in there at all. I can’t find any solenoids and I’m hoping to avoid buying the entire valve body. Have you found a fix yet?
Had my 460le rebuilt with monster trans kit, the cooler installed line broke and I got it towed and replaced asap, 1 week later I get a CEL for stuck solenoid open. Could it be dirty fluid or something worse? Drives and shifts fine although I parked it since running this code. Only thing noticed is my 2nd gear shift kit isn't thumping into 2nd like it used before changing cooler and fluid
Thank you for the information. Driving home last night (any where from 40 - 70 mph) with no stops, until in town, my 2009 Chrysler Town & Country stalled. Started up in neutral, shift to Drive, and it stalled again. Kept trying, was able to get it going and found it would run/drive using manual D1, D2, etc. Works okay in reverse. No engine light though? Prior to this stalling problem I have noticed at stop lights, the engine seems to idle at higher RPM. But not all the time. Taking it to the transmission shop for professional diagnosis. Have a great Labor Day weekend!
I know this is an old comment but did you find out what the problem was? My 2000 ford expedition 4.6L V8 Triton XLT 4 wheel drive is doing similar, and there is no check engine light, but my ABS light is on. My vehicle won't even go in reverse or allow me to shift to Park. I only can drive if I put the gear in 2.😬 I was told it was my Shift Solenoid that needs replacing.🤔
@@flowersfam3462Had a 2,000 bid to open it up and work on it. But the mechanic did not really want to do it. The other transmission shop would not even consider checking the solenoid. So I chose to replace the transmission (they gave me a 3 year warranty on the new one). Three days after it was fixed my battery died. The one fella told me his wife's truck was shifting bad and it was because the battery was going bad! Some kind of electronic issue! I'm putting that fact out of my mind to not second guess my purchase!
Great video, I have a 2000 JEEP WJ 4.7 and it started shifting hard from 1-2 and the kickdown from 4 to 2nd is really hard, do you have any idea on were to start? Cheers man!
@@e.l.9589 It rusted out to be a disk plate set and needs replacing. The OEM diagnostic tool made an adaptation for the gearbox and now it works smoothly. The guy told me that would last 100-200km but I did 700km and still shifts perfectly smooth. Cheers
This is a long shot hoping someone will chime in with some advice. I just had my transmission rebuild on a 2015 gmc Sierra 5.3. - I feel like the mechanic has done something incorrect. he has had it for a month now. has retired it to me a few times and the truck is not shifting correct. once up to full operating temp it will slip badly going into 2nd. Instead of shifting it will go into neutral and the revs will go up fast until I let off the gas , then it will usually clunk into gear , it goes through all the other gears fairly normally. he is claiming that the truck has to go thru a "learn cycle" than can take multiple days of driving it with these symptoms. sometimes it will just stick in second until oi come to a complete stop then it will go back to normal for a little while. it is also leaking a considerable amount of fluid, took it back twice for just the fluid leak and he keeps saying its fixed but then I take it home and its leaking. he said "sometimes it will leak a little at first"....none of this seems correct. the truck only has 80,000 miles on it and I do not think it even needed a transmission , the whining noise it was making that brought me in the begin with has not been resolved with the rebuild. this shop is where my warranty required me to take it and has very good reviews so I felt like it was a reputable shop. Is it true that a 2015 gmc transmission requires a re-learn period like this and do these sound like normal symptoms of that? I paid a lot of money for this truck and feel like this guy may have destroyed it. the amount of time it is taking is also excessive seeming to me. PS there is no check engine light or trans light coming on and this is why he says nothing is wrong. he has finally agreed it shouldn't be leaking trans fluid so it is back there again for that to be fixed.
Thanks for the video - and subscribed! - I have a 2002 Chevy Avalanche that recently experienced tranny coolant line failure... it was gushing out and ran low on trans. fluid. It was while driving it (constantly refilling the fluid) that I lost 3rd gear. In Drive it shifts fine from 1st to 2nd but when it goes to shift into 3rd gear it winds out as though it was just shifted into Neutral. Since this event I changed out the trans cooling lines, but it still does the same thing with a full trans fluid level and no leaks. Is it possible, with this symptom, that a shift solenoid went bad, or did I without question, fry my steel/friction plates with the low trans fluid condition? Thanks very much. Tripp in Ithaca
I just got my 2016 mustang gt back from ford bc I’m having transmission issues, I was told it’s skipping fourth gear, basically when I get to 25-30 mph the rpm flares up and if I let off the gas and let the rpm drop a little then get back on it then it will shift and drive fine, but if I try to get up to speed quickly it just won’t shift it seems to me although I don’t hold the gas very long in that situation bc I don’t want shoot the rpm’s through the roof while not gaining speed. Any clue to what this might be?
My nissan car when you drive cant exceed speed of 100, my transmission fluid is ok and on tge required level, but ecen if yiu press the gas pedal yo the bottom, doesnt exceed sich speed, what can be the problem? Kindly hep with ideas of how to fix.
A friend's Chevrolet truck went into "limp mode" and wouldn't change into 3rd gear. He fired the parts cannon and had spent all kinds of $$ trying to figure out what it was. I came over while he and his "automotive tech" neighbor were standing around the truck scratching their heads. Lol when I asked if he tried replacing the transmission shift solenoid his "tech" buddy immediately blurted out "thanks but it wouldn't shift at all if it was bad." Long story short.... It was the solenoid. I think he'd spend a couple hundred bucks already. Lol $18 for the solenoid, and around $40 bucks for pan gasket and new ATF was all he really needed.
How do you test the solenoids? Ohm meter? Im sure there's a video on that. I don't have time to mess with this so replacing the valve body altogether but would still like to test the solenoids on my current valve body for shits and giggles (and maybe to have a spare part)
sometimes my car could not shift gear the engine just revs and that is it.so I went to change transmission oil it was black.put new one and went to a shop that uses a special machine that is for changing transmission oil .believe it or not at my last transmission oil the people told me they do notnhave the proper equipment sp they could oybtake out only 40% old oil.noq they took 90%of the old oil. now the car shifts way better than before and so far does not stuck and does thebold problem but I still think new solenoids would help.
2003 Mazda Protege5 auto 126k miles On interstates at speed(70mph and above), if I hold these speeds for any length of time, car will slight rpm surge and downshift! Not comfortable at 75mph!!! Is this something possibly fixed by changing out solenoids and filter? Car drives completely fine in any other situation below these speeds.
Great video thank u!! I drive a 08 Lexus IS250. When slowing down and almost about to come to a complete stop I feel a slight bump. Do you know what that can be related to?? I have no check engine light. And I just got the car so I'm not sure if the training fluid or filters was ever change.
@@2righteous I got an update. So I did an engine oil flush using motor medic. I then change my engine oil, filter, and spark plugs, and did a full throttle buddy cleaning down to removing the intake manifold and soaking the intake passages which were full of carbon and slosh. I used seafoam for that. Additionally, I change my front and rear brakes complete with new rotors. Miraculously that surge or bump I was feeling when coming to a complete stop has now disappeared. I'm guessing it had something to do with the carbon cleaning I did and not at all transmission related. What ever it was I no longer have that issue.🤗
the problem I have is that: when the transmission is cold it runs fine. when it gets warm the transmission feels like it's in N it will not go at all. After it gets cool its starts and runs a few blocks and again same

NEED HELP - I have a 2001 Olds Aurora, 4 litre ( V8 engine) that runs good, but just when I'm coming close to a dead stop, it"sometimes" bucks a couple times before idling down to low RPMS that it should have at stop position. It's like the engine wants to keep going, and doesn't realize, we need to stop. The engine doesn't rev high or anything, it just sort of bucks a couple times. This problem only happens intermittedly - not all the time. How can I fix this? Other than this problem, my transmission runs and shifts smoothly, and the speed of the car is not affected at all at normal driving speeds, but only when slowing down to come to a stop - may start to buck a bit before stopping. My car does not go into limp mode, but the Check Engine Light is on. BTW - Good video here, and does anyone have any suggestions ??
My brother has a 16 highcountry with the 5.3 9l80 I believe and sometimes while driving it will go out of overdrive and run at 3000rpm.

I Have a 2007 ES350 Lexus, when first used in the morning it will slip when it goes into 4 gear, after that it runs normal for the rest of the day. can it be a solenoid?
My 2005 4l60e shifts through all gears, but it sometimes slips when in 4th gear. I bought 2 of the shift solenoids and the torque converter clutch solenoid, filter and pan gasket, but I'm not sure they are my problem. Usually accelerating hard in 3rd gear, then letting off the gas at the same time I shift it into Drive (4th gear) and leave my foot off the gas for several seconds, it will go into 4th without slipping. Otherwise it will go into 4th but will slip after the truck has been driving for about 10 minutes or so. Must have something to do with warmer transmission fluid helping to cause the problem. Anyone else had this problem and fixed it?
I have a 2003 honda civic and when I floor it the transmission is getting stuck at every gear when flooring it. Only way to get it to shift is to let off the gas and push back on and then it shifts up. Does anyone know what the issue is?
Not shifting out of first is often a computer issue. Disconnect the battery and touch the battery cables together to drain any juice out of the vehicle. Then leave it disconnected for 10 minutes. This will reset the computer.
Is it possible to make the TV cable adjustment too many times? If so, what are the repercussions of doing that? I've been having issues, for about 6 months now, with my 94 Jeep XJ automatic shifting either too quick or too late, very erratic overall. I've replaced the TPS and have done this adjustment probably 20-25 times over the coarse of the last 6 mos. Yesterday, it started to not shift at all on the highway. I would press the gas and the RPMs would go up over 3000, but it would not accelerate and I had to coast it into a gas station. Went out and made the TV cable adjustment and then would crank, but not start. Repeated the adjustment 5-6 times and still wouldn't start. Unplugged the TPS and it started right up. Attempted to drive it the 5 miles home, with the TPS unplugged, but the same issue came up with it not shifting or accelerating. Is this what they call "limp mode"? Anyway, I pull over and plug the TPS back and try to start it and this time it started and mysteriously drove and shifted much better, although still not perfectly. Should I be looking at something in the transmission itself at this point? It's full of fluid and it's the stock AW4 tranny. Does any of this sound related to a neutral safety switch problem at all? Thanks for any help anyone can offer.

I have an automatic 2003 Honda Civic 1.7 LX. My transmission is acting up with no check engine. How can I tell if it slips or delay in shifting? I fixed one Honda by replacing the 1,2,3,4 shift solenoid as one unit (I was getting code for it) but this feels like slips and to my understanding that needs overhauled. What cause transmission to slip between shiftings?
This was pretty good. Straight forward!!! Another straight forward idea is, don’t buy US trucks. They’re ALL garbage. Buy Toyotas. Hell even Nissans are way better with less headaches
I know this video is a few years old I don't know if you'll get this message or not I have a 2009 Chevy Malibu 2.4 4 speed no engine light comes on but it will not shift into overdrive or shift out of 3rd gear I'm driving 70 mph and the RPMs are like 4,000 when it should be like 25 any suggestions transmission fluid is good I'm thinking a solenoid but why would there not be a engine code
Would a bad Shift Solenoid be the cause of my 1995 Dodge Ram 1500 not moving out of park? I won't go frontward or backward. I bought brand new transmission fluid and oil and that didn't fix it... I was thinking along the lines of a linkage problem.
Am using 2004 honda Accord 3.0 v6 My problem is whn i kick full acceleration rip goes high and rpm is cutting off.. not shifting to next gear .but when i drive normally all gears are shifting normal.. only in full throttle rpm is cutting and not shifting anyone knw why?

Hi! How are you? I have a problem with my ram 5.7 2016 with automatic gearbox. The problem is that when the truck need to put the 5th gear the revolutions going up but the gear is not into.

My Hyundai 2016 when it's cold I can accelerate the car but when it warm it won't go anywhere. I changed the fluid but nothing happened. I think it might be a bad Solenoid but I need more help.
My car first symptom was the check transmission light that came on with a flashing drive gear light while I was going 60 the speed limit on the freeway and the car switching to lymph mode as soon as the rpm arrow went above number 3 and got stuck there. The car started driving at least 40 mph while the speedometer still said I was going 60. I parked the car right on the side of the highway to let it cool off. Fast forward to 20 minutes later, The car was back to driving normally again. Following that about a couple of weeks later, I noticed weird gear shift delays regardless what gear I switched to unless I put it into park and following that, It makes a clunk noise coming directly from the transmission when it finally does switch. When I accelerate and reach close to 20 mph, A typical car with an automatic transmission switches to higher gears but mine gets stuck in gear and the engine starts revving harder and it jerks back to its appropriate gear. Upon inspection I did notice that the transmission is very low on fluid and the fluid is almost black. I took my car to the mechanic for a diagnostic and a fluid with filter and gasket change where he told me that the transmission needs to be replaced and upon further questioning, He told me that there’s no point in changing the fluid because the transmission is basically bare medal rubbing debris and that it would make the transmission run worse. It’s been about a month now and the car runs basically the same as it did when I visited the mechanic with no transmission failure and I’m thinking about bringing it to another mechanic for a second opinion when I have money. I would be more then glad to hear your guy’s opinions and suggestions if any as well. I’m very hopeful that the first mechanic was wrong.
Thank you for watching!

@ Easy Autofix Sir the car transmission is making whinning noise and delays in shifting gears, I checked for the fuel level is Ok, I checked for the oil still fresh not burned, I checked for any leaks no any leaks, I open the pan, but there were no any metal shavings on the magnets no any particles on the fluid, I decided to change the transmission filter, I checked and open the valve body no any clogs on the passages, I removed all solenoids I tested them all, and one was not working, I changed it with new one, I put back everything I test drive the vehicle no more whinning noise at all and gears are changing smoothly, but after two days as i drive reaching speed of 100 mph, the whinning noise started again, and the car struggles to exceed speed of 100mph, the RPM goes high and the speed is not achieved, I checked fluid level is OK. what can be the problem, and what can be done sir? Kindly help with ideas.

My O/D light keeps flashing on my ford f150 year 2000 and yes when I shift my gears on N/D/R etc it gives this jerk motion is that the solenoid or speed sensor?

We’re all here hoping we don’t need a new transmission 😂
fucking true.
Facts!! 😂
Praying hard
Just replaced mine…issues mostly resolved but still having hard shifting from first to second lol so now I’m sure it’s a solenoid problem.
Just sold my 14 civic for a 98 accord and I really hope I don't need a new trans🥲
So we all have dead cars rn 😂👏🏽
😫😂😂😂
Stoppppp 🤣🤣🤣their hibernating shhhh
Mine shifts hard when putting it in P, R AND DRIVE

Those are exactly the symptoms my truck is having 😢 better than needing a new transmission by far😅
Just changed the 1-2 shift solenoid in Blazer the other day. Drove great after replacing the solenoid.
My 2000 Blazer won't go in reverse. I put it in reverse and hit the gas and nothing happens
@@JB2FROSTY the solenoids are not to expensive. Worth changing to see if it helps. The one I did had a code for a shift solenoid circuit fault.
How do I tell if it's just the solenoid switch, or the entire transmission? Because I hope it's the former because replacing just the solenoid would be much cheaper than replacing the whole tranny.
Good question, I hope someone answers it because I'm curious about that too
You need to replace the Sputnik vacuum valve under the transmission picke plate. Its easy to spot, because it's right behind the gear nook. Hope this helps👍

very nice, thank you!
Almost everyone watching has atleast one thing in common… our trans are shifting like shit 😂
Yep, wont shift into 3rd gear
Thank you! Perfectly explained. I believe this is my problem on our 2003 Lincoln Navigator. So bad, last week it had to be flat bedded home (rainy wet day). Engine light, Overdrive warning light, engine missing, Codes galore. Bad... A couple days later, I go out to start checking out what could be wrong, boom, Truck starts up, runs smooth, trans engages, and I drive it for a few miles with no issues. I am afraid to drive it far from home, in case the problem comes back. Any advice?
My 2001 lesabre started with severe delayed shifting, first to second wasn't bad but second to third would slam into gear, I did some research and found that this was a known problem on some lesabre models. The temporary fix if you can call it that is to shut the car off which resets the module, leave it off for a couple of minutes then it shifts normally again until it does it again, sometimes it lasts for a bit but then the problem comes back, with close to 300,000 miles it was time to replace all five solonoids. I purchased all five as a package deal off eBay, all OEM parts, the first thing is to prepare the patient by raising the rear and front of the car, I used ramps on the rear and jacked up the front as high as I could because you need to lower the subframe and remove the strut cv axle and everything necessary to gain access to the side cover of the transmission. Remove the cover and it's relatively easy after that except for one thing, the wiring harness that connects the solonoids together, from being heated and cooled a million times the clips that hold the connectors are more brittle than Bob Barkers back, one broke on me and there's no real way to secure it thst I felt confident with. I went to my local Buick dealer and go my surprise they still made the harness, and it could be mine for the poultry sum of 350.00 dollars. I told him I'd let him know, went home and low and behold I found one on eBay for 25 bucks, the only thing was that now I had to wait almost a week with the car in pieces taking up my driveway. I received the part put everything back together and prayed. That was about five years ago and she's been shifting perfect ever since, all told parts, the side cover gasket was the most, second to the solonoids at 55 bucks, all five solonoids were 75 from eBay,,the whole job was around maybe 175 including trans fluid, you loss a lot from the side cover, I also removed and replaced the trans filter while I was at it. I've been working on cars for almost 40 years now, I wouldn't recommend doing if yourself for a beginner but then again, everybody has to start somewhere, power tools aren't necessary but they make the job to faster, with hand tools it's a lot of nuts and bolts to remove.
appreciate your comments....Have an05 LeSabre. Sometimes rough bump after initial shift into drive. Five solenoids?

Hello everyone. I'm wondering if you could help me to help my dad. His work van is a 2001 Econoline2001 e350 it won't go into drive it only will go into neutral Park and reverse. He took it to a shop and paid $200 just for them to look at it and they told him he needed a new transmission. The person that sold it to him told him to never let anybody tell him it was the transmission if that happened that it was the solenoids. The linkage being loose. Does anybody know anything about this at all I've looked everywhere and I can't seem to find anything
Check the transmission control module. It might have got wet .
I have a 6l80e and 2-3 slips sometimes but smooth on highway or if I’m giving it enough gas. Changed fluid and it’s still the same not better or worse. Trans never overheats. Always stays 140-180
See if cleaning or replacing your MAF helps. Trying that now as soon as my maf comes in the mail

Had my 460le rebuilt with monster trans kit, the cooler installed line broke and I got it towed and replaced asap, 1 week later I get a CEL for stuck solenoid open.

Thank you for the information. Driving home last night (any where from 40 - 70 mph) with no stops, until in town, my 2009 Chrysler Town & Country stalled. Started up in neutral, shift to Drive, and it stalled again. Kept trying, was able to get it going and found it would run/drive using manual D1, D2, etc. Works okay in reverse. No engine light though? Prior to this stalling problem I have noticed at stop lights, the engine seems to idle at higher RPM. But not all the time. Taking it to the transmission shop for professional diagnosis. Have a great Labor Day weekend!
I know this is an old comment but did you find out what the problem was?
My 2000 ford expedition 4.6L V8 Triton XLT 4 wheel drive is doing similar, and there is no check engine light, but my ABS light is on.

@@flowersfam3462Had a 2,000 bid to open it up and work on it. But the mechanic did not really want to do it. The other transmission shop would not even consider checking the solenoid. So I chose to replace the transmission (they gave me a 3 year warranty on the new one).

This is a long shot hoping someone will chime in with some advice. I just had my transmission rebuild on a 2015 gmc Sierra 5.3. - I feel like the mechanic has done something incorrect. he has had it for a month now. has retired it to me a few times and the truck is not shifting correct. once up to full operating temp it will slip badly going into 2nd. Instead of shifting it will go into neutral and the revs will go up fast until I let off the gas , then it will usually clunk into gear , it goes through all the other gears fairly normally. he is claiming that the truck has to go thru a "learn cycle" than can take multiple days of driving it with these symptoms. sometimes it will just stick in second until oi come to a complete stop then it will go back to normal for a little while. it is also leaking a considerable amount of fluid, took it back twice for just the fluid leak and he keeps saying its fixed but then I take it home and its leaking. he said "sometimes it will leak a little at first"....none of this seems correct. the truck only has 80,000 miles on it and I do not think it even needed a transmission , the whining noise it was making that brought me in the begin with has not been resolved with the rebuild. this shop is where my warranty required me to take it and has very good reviews so I felt like it was a reputable shop. Is it true that a 2015 gmc transmission requires a re-learn period like this and do these sound like normal symptoms of that? I paid a lot of money for this truck and feel like this guy may have destroyed it. the amount of time it is taking is also excessive seeming to me. PS there is no check engine light or trans light coming on and this is why he says nothing is wrong. he has finally agreed it shouldn't be leaking trans fluid so it is back there again for that to be fixed.
I have a 2003 Ford ranger XLT it will not shift out of first gear unless I let off the gas then it shifts fine
Thanks for the video - and subscribed! - I have a 2002 Chevy Avalanche that recently experienced tranny coolant line failure... it was gushing out and ran low on trans. fluid. It was while driving it (constantly refilling the fluid) that I lost 3rd gear. In Drive it shifts fine from 1st to 2nd but when it goes to shift into 3rd gear it winds out as though it was just shifted into Neutral.
Since this event I changed out the trans cooling lines, but it still does the same thing with a full trans fluid level and no leaks.
Is it possible, with this symptom, that a shift solenoid went bad, or did I without question, fry my steel/friction plates with the low trans fluid condition?
Thanks very much.

I just got my 2016 mustang gt back from ford bc I’m having transmission issues, I was told it’s skipping fourth gear, basically when I get to 25-30 mph the rpm flares up and if I let off the gas and let the rpm drop a little then get back on it then it will shift and drive fine, but if I try to get up to speed quickly it just won’t shift it seems to me although I don’t hold the gas very long in that situation bc I don’t want shoot the rpm’s through the roof while not gaining speed. Any clue to what this might be?
My nissan car when you drive cant exceed speed of 100, my transmission fluid is ok and on tge required level, but ecen if yiu press the gas pedal yo the bottom, doesnt exceed sich speed, what can be the problem? Kindly hep with ideas of how to fix.
A friend's Chevrolet truck went into "limp mode" and wouldn't change into 3rd gear. He fired the parts cannon and had spent all kinds of $$ trying to figure out what it was. I came over while he and his "automotive tech" neighbor were standing around the truck scratching their heads. Lol when I asked if he tried replacing the transmission shift solenoid his "tech" buddy immediately blurted out "thanks but it wouldn't shift at all if it was bad."
Long story short.... It was the solenoid. I think he'd spend a couple hundred bucks already. Lol $18 for the solenoid, and around $40 bucks for pan gasket and new ATF was all he really needed.
which one of the 5?
How do you test the solenoids? Ohm meter? Im sure there's a video on that. I don't have time to mess with this so replacing the valve body altogether but would still like to test the solenoids on my current valve body for shits and giggles (and maybe to have a spare part)
Thank you! Those are the symptoms my car is experiencing!!

sometimes my car could not shift gear the engine just revs and that is it.so I went to change transmission oil it was black.put new one and went to a shop that uses a special machine that is for changing transmission oil .believe it or not at my last transmission oil the people told me they do notnhave the proper equipment sp they could oybtake out only 40% old oil.noq they took 90%of the old oil.
now the car shifts way better than before and so far does not stuck and does thebold problem but I still think new solenoids would help.

@@2righteous I got an update. So I did an engine oil flush using motor medic. I then change my engine oil, filter, and spark plugs, and did a full throttle buddy cleaning down to removing the intake manifold and soaking the intake passages which were full of carbon and slosh. I used seafoam for that. Additionally, I change my front and rear brakes complete with new rotors. Miraculously that surge or bump I was feeling when coming to a complete stop has now disappeared. I'm guessing it had something to do with the carbon cleaning I did and not at all transmission related. What ever it was I no longer have that issue.🤗
the problem I have is that: when the transmission is cold it runs fine. when it gets warm the transmission feels like it's in N it will not go at all. After it gets cool its starts and runs a few blocks and again same

I would press the gas and the RPMs would go up over 3000, but it would not accelerate and I had to coast it into a gas station. Went out and made the TV cable adjustment and then would crank, but not start. Repeated the adjustment 5-6 times and still wouldn't start. Unplugged the TPS and it started right up. Attempted to drive it the 5 miles home, with the TPS unplugged, but the same issue came up with it not shifting or accelerating. Is this what they call "limp mode"? Anyway, I pull over and plug the TPS back and try to start it and this time it started and mysteriously drove and shifted much better, although still not perfectly. Should I be looking at something in the transmission itself at this point? It's full of fluid and it's the stock AW4 tranny. Does any of this sound related to a neutral safety switch problem at all? Thanks for any help anyone can offer.
Anyone have knowledge on 1995 Nissan Ext cab v6 automatic transmission drives when cold. When warms up enough it acts like it’s in N and won’t go in gear at all. Messages are appreciated
I have a 1995 Silverado 5.7L 4x4.... Put in gear, and it barely moves just high rpms and takes forever to get to 30mph then boom we are off to the races runs like a champ, what's my issue?
2021 Hyundai Tuscon SEL 145,000 miles between 40-55 mph there is a slight shimmy or shutter for 3-4 seconds then back to normal no service engine lighten back to normal no service engine light
I have an automatic 2003 Honda Civic 1.7 LX. My transmission is acting up with no check engine. How can I tell if it slips or delay in shifting? I fixed one Honda by replacing the 1,2,3,4 shift solenoid as one unit (I was getting code for it) but this feels like slips and to my understanding that needs overhauled. What cause transmission to slip between shiftings?
This was pretty good. Straight forward!!! Another straight forward idea is, don’t buy US trucks. They’re ALL garbage. Buy Toyotas. Hell even Nissans are way better with less headaches
I know this video is a few years old I don't know if you'll get this message or not I have a 2009 Chevy Malibu 2.4 4 speed no engine light comes on but it will not shift into overdrive or shift out of 3rd gear I'm driving 70 mph and the RPMs are like 4,000 when it should be like 25 any suggestions transmission fluid is good I'm thinking a solenoid but why would there not be a engine code
Would a bad Shift Solenoid be the cause of my 1995 Dodge Ram 1500 not moving out of park? I won't go frontward or backward. I bought brand new transmission fluid and oil and that didn't fix it... I was thinking along the lines of a linkage problem.
Well I just went ahead and added 3 bottles of Lucas transmission fluid 😉🤦🤷♂️💩😆🤣☠️☠️☠️#FullSend #DoIt4Dale
Am using 2004 honda Accord 3.0 v6
My problem is whn i kick full acceleration rip goes high and rpm is cutting off.. not shifting to next gear .but when i drive normally all gears are shifting normal.. only in full throttle rpm is cutting and not shifting anyone knw why?
Ok in my 05 trailblazer there is 2 solenoid 1-2 2-3 or 3-4 not sure but there's 2 my truck shifts 1-2 but no 3-4 , my question is is which solenoid is the bad one? How do I tell the 1-2 from the 3-4? They look exactly the same?
I have a 2015 Hyundai Santa Fe 2.4L AWD. Transmission shift out of second in Automatic but I can shift it manually bye moving the shift lever to the right. Need help.
Hi, my Chevy Blazer 3.6 2020 has vibration, i think its from transmission, i shifted gearbox in L, when shifting from manually gear box cannot shift in 3 gear. can you advice me what to do?
So basically if this is bad & I take it to a transmission shop…There gonna say o sorry sir but it’s gonna be 2500 to fix your transmission? SMH…People LEARN how to fix your own 💩
Mines p0773 and still runs fine.. I got it back from a mechanic with this code and when I took it to him I had no codes or CEL on. He replaced my valve cover gasket and spark plugs. Could this cause this solenoid to malfunction or something??
Hi everyone! Im about to work on a Volvo c30 transmission that is not engaging 1st and 3rd gears just 2nd and 4th anyone knows what could be causing the problem!? Thank you! I suspect that could be a bad solenoid what you guys think!?
Hi! How are you? I have a problem with my ram 5.7 2016 with automatic gearbox. The problem is that when the truck need to put the 5th gear the revolutions going up but the gear is not into. Is like you press the clutch in a manual car and accelerate. I changed the valves box and also the solenoides for the another model but the same piece, because my ram has an grey connector and I puted a green one. Thanks so much 😁
Think this is happening to my 05 Nissan Ultima V6 also hard to change gears. Also hard to change gears from reverse to drive.
My 1990 k2500 4+4 5 speed shifter grommet or shifter rubber piece that goes around the shifter ball that goes into the transmission shift that makes it fit tight and shipped with like eight and up and I have tried everywhere to get one and I cannot and I have tried everything I could think of but for some reason it seems like it still don't want to s***
My Hyundai 2016 when it's cold I can accelerate the car but when it warm it won't go anywhere. I changed the fluid but nothing happened. I think it might be a bad Solenoid but I need more help.
My car first symptom was the check transmission light that came on with a flashing drive gear light while I was going 60 the speed limit on the freeway and the car switching to lymph mode as soon as the rpm arrow went above number 3 and got stuck there. The car started driving at least 40 mph while the speedometer still said I was going 60. I parked the car right on the side of the highway to let it cool off. Fast forward to 20 minutes later, The car was back to driving normally again. Following that about a couple of weeks later, I noticed weird gear shift delays regardless what gear I switched to unless I put it into park and following that, It makes a clunk noise coming directly from the transmission when it finally does switch.
When I accelerate and reach close to 20 mph, A typical car with an automatic transmission switches to higher gears but mine gets stuck in gear and the engine starts revving harder and it jerks back to its appropriate gear. Upon inspection I did notice that the transmission is very low on fluid and the fluid is almost black. I took my car to the mechanic for a diagnostic and a fluid with filter and gasket change where he told me that the transmission needs to be replaced and upon further questioning, He told me that there’s no point in changing the fluid because the transmission is basically bare medal rubbing debris and that it would make the transmission run worse. It’s been about a month now and the car runs basically the same as it did when I visited the mechanic with no transmission failure and I’m thinking about bringing it to another mechanic for a second opinion when I have money. I would be more then glad to hear your guy’s opinions and suggestions if any as well. I’m very hopeful that the first mechanic was wrong.
