just cruisin along and it justed dropped into second and didnt come back to anything else. i've read that you guys have had teh problem b4 on a couple posts and said it was the input sensor. it does come back for a lil while tho when i stop the car and turn it back on. after a few min tho it just only has second again....any sugestions? or did you try the sensor replacement and have it work?

The car going into 2nd isnt your problem. It is just in what you call safe mode or limp home mode.

This can be a good thing or a bad thing. When it goes into safe mode it can hinder further damage. But, it doesnt allow you to "feel" for the problem.

There are scanners that can pin point your problem, of you can go replacing sensors. The IP OP would be my first choice. If that doesnt help drop the pan and check out your magnet.

thats cool...would changing the tranny fluid and filter help me at all, cuz i'll prolly just do that while im at it too. oh...and how hard are those sensors to change?

Like replacing spark plugs essentially.

Changing the fluid out wont necassarily fix anything because the computer has gone into safe mode. Have to reset the computer to do that. txchange.com has those sensors really cheap for our tranny. check em out.

It'd be a good idea to drop the pan though to see what's going on inside.

Limp to autozone and have the codes pulled, then replace the part that it says is bad.

Thats why we have a check engine light and obd2 diagnostics so you dont have to just start changing stuff.

just because the cel isnt on doesnt mean there isnt a code stored for the problem.
