A common mistake is that people wire the back up light loom to the wrong side of the coil.
Remember that the loom that feeds the backup light plugs into the 15 circuit (engine switched 12v to run).
The 1 circuit is the negative side of the coil that is for the ignition points only.
There are several reasons that a car may stall only in reverse, the best way to narrow down the issue is to use a diagnostic tool. The diagnostic tool will show which sensors on the transmission may be malfunctioning enough to stall the engine.
Change your transmission oil it happen to me . And have your mechanic check the transmission you might have metal shavings in the transmission which is really bad.
transmission filter not properly seated in the valve body, causing it to stall when engaging reverse gear, wouldnt have believed it if i personally hadnt experienced the exact same problem myself.
I really doubt it's the tranny making your car stall, it's either carburetor problems or the idle is set too low.
Why would it stall or almost stall in Reverse but not in Drive? How long since it's received a tune-up and thorough check-up? How is the compression?
If you mean each time you engage car in any gear forward or reverse & it immediately stalls - you have a bad torque converter. Start engine, put foot on brake, put car in NEUTRAL, if it DOES NOT stall, but it does stall if you repeat this test when you put car in drive or reverse = bad torque converter - It's called a "stall test"
No, that would indicate transmission problems, is it a standard or and auto?
A car might stall when shifting from park to reverse if the idle is set too low. It is also possible that the engine stalls because it is not fully warmed up before shifting from park to reverse.
Because reverse is a lower ratio gear than drive and puts less load on the engine.
One possible cause for a 1995 Dodge Avenger stalling when shifted into reverse could be a faulty idle air control valve. This component is responsible for regulating the engine's idle speed, so if it is malfunctioning, the engine could stall when the transmission is engaged in reverse. It is recommended to have the idle air control valve inspected and potentially replaced to address this issue.
what will cause a transmission in a 1992 buick lasebre to shrudderas and stall engine
If it is a standard transmission, you would need to slowly let out the clutch while backing up.
