Transmissions not shifting out of second gear.
It tells you your second gear start switch is on. When on, that switch makes the transmission not use first gear. This is good for icy winter conditions.
Some can be started in this gear, yes.
Quite possibly a worn second gear clutch pack.
Not really enough info given to diagnose your problem. BUT, here's a possibility: IF it is an automatic transmission AND it won't shift out of second gear - second gear is a safety default called the "limp-home" mode. If the transmission is failing it will automatically lock into that gear so that you will at least be be able to get it to home or a repair facility. Transmissions are usually NOT a do-it-yourslef item, and it will probably have to be diagnosed by a mechanic.
Not sure what you are referring to. On some transmissions it is the highest gear on others (8 and 9 speeds) it is a low gear.Not sure what you are referring to. On some transmissions it is the highest gear on others (8 and 9 speeds) it is a low gear.
Ford has produced the Econoline since 1961. They came with many different engines, transmissions, gear ratios, etc. Be more specific.
The switched labeled SGS stands for "Second Gear Start". This allows you to start off in second gear when accellerating.
2003 Ford wind star LX mini van does change to second gear except when placed on 2 and it does not speed.
No, just automatic transmissions. Manual transmissions do not need to be cooled as they are just a gear box with heavy gear oil in them.
it does not move when in gear
Worn out gear. You need a mechanic !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
