The light is on because there is a problem with the transmission. Take it to a trusted professional and have them change to the fluid and filter and see if this helps. Do not ignore this light.
my trans shifts late it dosent slipp shifts hard to get into 1st and 2nd after that she goes right into 3rd then 4th normally i was wondering if there is a shift sensor to tell the trans when to shift
it may be the slave cylinder or clutch master cylinder
could be MAF sensor or trans
Bad pressure plate. Worn fingers on the plate most likely.
there isn't a difference cause theres no such thing as a automatic or manual engine. there is such thing as a manual transmission aka trans. and a automatic trans. the automatic shifts by hydrolic pressure that increases when acclurating. and a manual trans the person driving the vehical shifts the gears with a lever. i hope that's what you wanted to know.
Except for a 3 speed Wrangler, a 2002 Jeep trans is electronically controlled and wouldn't have a governor. The 3 speed auto in a Wrangler has a governor that control what speeds the trans shifts at.
if its jumping out of fifth gear the fifth gear syncronisers in the trans are shot
You are overheating the transmission. This will DESTROY it! You probably should add a transmission cooler.
the kick down cable shifts the 700r4 trans
low trans fluid level.
it lets the computer know how warm or cold the trans fliud is so it can adjust the shifts accordingly
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
