Check that the rubber bushing one the kick down rod are in tack. They like to break
on the drivers side of the transmission towards the back just past the neutarl safety switch. it may or may not be electronic. if its not the speed cable is going into it.
THE SWITCH IS ON THE TRANSMISSION IT IS CALED A TRANS RANGE SWITCH TR SWITCH IT IS MOUNTED ON THE SIDE OF THE TRANS WHERE THE LEVER THAT SHIFTS THE TRANS YOU NEED TO REMOVE THAT LEVER I THINK THE TRANS NEEDS TO BE IN NETERAL THE PART WILL HAVE INST WITH IT HOPE THIS HELPS
Type your answer here... This switch on automatic transmission models is a power selector. When in the "N" position the transmission shifts at Normal shift points. When "P" is selected the shift points are at a higher Rpm (Power).
It is actually to "improve" the shifts of the automatic transmission. I can tell a difference when I do this but it does use more gas and I don't like that. It is not really a sporty car so I have a sports car to drive if I want firmer shifts.
Shift points are controlled by the engine computers activation of a governor pressure solenoid. The governor pressure activates valves in the transmission that switch gears.
If this is an automatic transmission, the switch is located on the driver side of the transmission housing where the linkage plugs into the transmission. If it is a manual transmission the clutch safety switch is located near the top of the clutch pedal.
The trans will bolt up to the motor and should fit the transmission crossmember. You will need to do a little research on connecting a manual switch to lock the converter up when the transmission shifts into overdrive. Web search " 700 r4 lock-up kit/ switch" and you will find several companies that can assist you in finalizing the installation.
Neutral safety switch is only on a manual transmission. The switch is in the upper rear of the transmission case.
The switch for the backup light switch for an automatic transmission is located on the transmission where the shifting cable enters the transmission (The side of the transmission closest to the radiator),how about for the manual trans mission models?
You didn't state weather it was an Automatic or Manual transmission. Well any way they are both on the transmission. Manual transmission has a separate switch for the backup lights the automatic is built into the neutral safety switch on the transmission. Automatic switch is about $50.00. Manual switch is about $10.00. Hope you have a manual it is a lot cheaper.
switch is on side of transmission under the car
You would have to literally run a wire from the battery through a fuse and then to a toggle switch and then on to the backup lights, this will only function when the switch is on and will have nothing to do with the transmission being in reverse. This is essentially the same as putting a toggle switch across the transmission mounted switch (assuming the transmission switch is not shorted).
