Torque Converter Lock / Unlock Issues
- Torque Converter Lock / Unlock Issues
so couple weeks ago, i pulled the wrong fuse. reinstalled it. now the hunting has gone away....in OD. now i get TC hunting in 3rd....and i believe down shifting to 2nd. im noticing the downshift tends to happen when going over bumps....as little lane reflectors. i still have the knocking sound. running the edge comp box OFF. made no difference in sound, just performance. i usually have it on 1...2 if im feeling frisky. i dont feel confident enough to go higher or even rev it high. vary rare i go over 2k rpm. i like the truck...just gotta chase the goblins around some more.- Torque Converter Lock / Unlock Issues
after it gets to zero...it stays there...maybe even a little negative. id have to check again for the negative part....but definitely from high to low- Torque Converter Lock / Unlock Issues
so the meter i used to was an IDEAL model 61-360. it started out with a high reading and worked its way back to zero. cheap meter or does this sound right? i think meter was 80 bucks or so new....yrs ago.- i believe i have trans issues....
Exactly what I thought! Now, is it possible to have some kind of leak where pick up attaches the VB? I don't know if it's a press fit or bolted...- i believe i have trans issues....
I took hope it is...that's an easier thing to fix. I'm still a little puzzled. Let's say it's a 2 qt sump. So 2 qt more than stock. You add the 2 qt and now your back up to the level where it would be in stock form. If it sloshes...it should slosh in stick trim and with deep pan. Also....how does the dip stick still read full?? I don't know what it looks like inside...I can imagine pick up being submerged all the time. Perhaps the point where it connects to valve body has come loose,separated...or leaks? This would behave funny with ant size pan...right?- i believe i have trans issues....
Extended pick up? As in oil pick up inside pan? If so, I have no idea. I've never dropped the pan. It is a deep pan....but not their deepest. Not sure if it needs an extension. If it does and it's not deep enough in fluid...it would make sense that it slips are turns.- i believe i have trans issues....
Sounds familiar....but I'll do it anyway. The going thru gears thing. Question tho....why would dodge say to check in neutral if going thru gears is more accurate? I turned off tuner....no change in sound. Honesty, makes me consider selling it. I do like it....but dropping thousands in a 14yr old.....without mods....doesn't leave best taste in mouth. Know what I mean? Crap thing to say....I know. Frustration kicks in...knowing a vp44 change could be 1500....stings...and that's with me doing the work. Nonetheless. I thank you for the insight! I goes very appreciated.- i believe i have trans issues....
Power loss....as if I put it in neutral, then dropped it in drive. The most common response see I've seen to that was low fluid. Only dip stick read good. I actually filed it up past max...and slip went away.- i believe i have trans issues....
Copy. I'd say noise comes from under engine near flex plate. My tuner is on level 2 of 5. Maybe even level 1. I think it's 1. I've never had it past 3. I'm curious to see how it moves at level 5....but not interested in 'finding' the source of the noise, ya know. I'm past the point of hot rodding. I've done it too much when I was younher I guess. Having the power is nice, but I'm not looking for some tuner car to smoke em out. Haha. I am guilty on the fuel filter. I have not changed it. Previous owner said all changes were made before I got it, good friend of mine....but still, I have no excuse, should've changed it. Lift pump is on the board of this to get. Gotta free up 600+bucks for it. Thank you for the help...any ideas of my other issues with trans? Funny thing...since I R/R battery fuse, hunting seemed to subside. ..- i believe i have trans issues....
i do not. far as i can see...engine is stock as well as its components. exhaust and air filter are aftermarket. and it has an edge comp tuner on it...the usual gauges... where would i go to have the injectors pop tested? there arent many diesel tuner shops in my area...- i believe i have trans issues....
guess i have to remove it. ive tried turning it off many times. made no difference. and if no changes are noticed after removal?- i believe i have trans issues....
so i can turn tuner off....or would it require complete removal? its an edge comp. aside from air filter and 4" exhaust, no other mods done as far as i can tell...- i believe i have trans issues....
And how can I diagnose the fuel issue And repair it?- i believe i have trans issues....
Thank you sir. What or where should I be looking when inspecting flex plate? I've check tc bolts, theyre tight. The slip....all drive power lost. If I take the turn at idle or just above...I'm ok. If it's a normal driving, left turn...chances are good I lose drive power. When turn is over it slams back into gear....if I don't take foot of throttle. I've check the alternative for ac voltage. What I got was a real high reading that reduced itself to zero in about 3...5 sec.meaning it started high then went low to below zero actually. Measured at both batteries. I've heard that knocks can be mech. Or fuel related. Noise seems loudest when under the truck...if that paints a clearer pic. Thanks to all for the replies - Torque Converter Lock / Unlock Issues
