Want this question answered?
i have the same problem and i was told it's the slave cylinder. i'am changing mine. you might want to do the same.
it should be 75w90 or 80w90 gear oil.
You need to have the transmission computer checked for trouble codes. When the computer detects a malfunction it sets a code and defaults to second gear.
My 1992 Dodge Stealth ES is doing the same thing.. and I had the tranny rebuilt only about a year ago.Turns out, the Transmission ECU was fried... no power to the tranny at all so it defaults in 3rd gear...Do you have a 'PWR' & 'ECO' transmissions mapping switch in your center console? One indicator for me that the ECU was fried is that the light on the dash board did not come on when it was set to Power. (No lights should be on when it is on economy.)Hope this helps.
Second Gear
second gear
your transmission is out. your transmission is out.
Because it is in "Safe" mode.
To repair a stuck gear shift in a Dodge Neon, it is best to refer to a manual for the vehicle. A full explanation should be found in it. This is considered a major repair so it may be best to have a professional to fix the issue.
Several things can cause your transmission to be stuck in second gear. Broken or detached shifting linkage will cause the problem. A broken shifting for in the transmission can also cause the problem.
The Easton Stealth catchers gear is some of the best.The Stealth Speed catchers equipment is their top of the line, but any of the Stealth equipment would do.
You need to have the used transmission checked. Those trannies go into limp mode when there is a paroblem. Sometimes it's simple fix, sometimes not. Could be an electrical problem with one of the sensors in the front of the tranny. Have a good one.
