Why is there No overdrive in 94 chev automatic trans?

The overdrive has probably been unplugged on the transmission. Its a blue connector located on the transmission underneath the aircleaner. They are usually unplugged for a reason. If you plug it in and it runs bad, you have to replace the unit on the transmission.


What could be the reason my 1994 Toyota 4-runner with automatic transmission with overdrive will not shift into overdrive?

Computer needs to see the button on the shifter so I would check the connections from this to the computer. If not then check fluid levels and then possibly have the fluid and filter changed. After that a mechanical linkage adjustment or internal issue.

What is the reason the overdrive light blinks and why does it feel like it down shifts when it goes on?

The overdrive light blinks when the computer senses a transmission problem. (IE. Torque Converter failure) The reason it feels like it downshifts is due to the computer putting the transmission into a fail-safe mode to reduce further transmission damage.


Why won't my transmission shift into overdrive?

One of the reasons a transmission might not shift into overdrive could be a problem with the belt drive inside the transmission. Belt drives can be stretched over time. Another reason could be that the transmission fluid is low or very old or the filter is clogged.

Will a 85 gmc truck transmission fit in a 89 gmc truck and what do you have to do to make it fit?

If it's a manual transmission, you'll be talking about putting an SM465 to replace an NV3500 or NV4500... I'd be doing the opposite swap, personally, as the SM465 is a direct drive transmission with no overdrive gear. It can be done.. you'd just have to use the NV bell housing, and you might have to replace driveshafts with ones fitted for the new setup.More the same with the automatic transmission... there's no reason to replace an overdrive 700R4 with a direct drive TH350.


What automatic transmission fluid does your 2011 tacoma 2.7 use?

Automatic transmissions today are very expensive to repair or replace. Each manufacturer has their own specificially formulated fluid for their transmission. Using any fluid that is not compatible may cause serious problems down the road. For that reason I highly recommend you use nothing but Toyota T-IV ATF and no substitute.


Why won't a Honda Accord automatic shift out of first?

What needs to be done when your Daewoo Nubira with automatic transmission has a flashing power warning light that started after you changed the automatic transmission fluid?

If you didn't use dexron III transmission fluid, this may indicate the reason for the flashing light. Another reason is either too much or too little fluid. My best advice is to take the car to a transmission specialist. Really, changing the transmission fluid in a Daewoo is not something that should be attempted by anyone but a specialist.
