  2. this is a 4th gen 6.7 I have talk to mechanic and was told the it may run because it has the oil in it . but I never hear of feel it fully engage when the temp is up. and my fuel mileage has dropped 2mpgs which is another system of a bad clutch. the radiator is clean and was flushed last summer. this has led me to the clutch

  7. 2011 2500 6.7 68rfe 191000 miles my trans will shutter like i hit rumble strips on road when under heaver to moderate load , does not happen all the time. could this be torque converter clutches ? truck is stock. I checked did not hit rumble strips

  15. thanks for the response I will look at all those things , see what I find
  16. seal surface has a mirror finish, is there anything in the od. unit that could cause this ?
  17. fluid leaking between tcase and trans . have change seal 3 times ,cleaned surfaces, replaced with double lipped seal, still leaks yes I checked tcase seal not leaking from there. had trans rebuild after 220000 miles never leaked before rebuild. any Ideas to fix it besides sealing flanges where they mateup ?
  18. changed out vb if that means anything ! just rechecked resistance and it showed open all the time lock and unlock conditions ran up and down several times . guess I ll buy new converter ? does Mopar1973man work in a local shop?
  19. resistance read 0 all the time so I checked voltage drop, I did the alt fuse removal test with field wire pulled as will no change in lockup.
  20. OK I hooked my meter to the orange / black wire and drove the pickup several miles my meter is showing 14 volts in unlock and .18 in lockup, power go to 14 as soon as I let off throttle the converter stayed locked until I stopped and shut key off, startup it was released. putting in neutral and back in gear just killed engine, but only done this a couple of times out of about 10 lockup and stops. also check my ac voltage at alt. showed 28-30 volts
  21. question on a 2000 47re is it possible to hook a test light to the orange /black wire on no2 plug to see when the converter lock up signal is active or off? should it show power when not engaged and off when in lockup ? I have read that the clutch is under fluid pressure when unlocked and no fluid when in lockup, is this correct? also when the light is on will this cause it to lock because of the ground threw test light? I'am just trying to determine if pcm might be bad.
  22. It worked fine for 10000 miles then started the in & out lockup , then it went to just not unlocking at all unless i shut it off usually that unlocks it but not all the time. i remember when it was in and out I replaced the plastic accumulator piston with a billet one. dont know if that has any thing to do with current problem.
  23. all i got was a bill no specifics was supposed to be stock no up grades except the converter and not sure about that does not say on bill. I'am about ready to take to a shop and have them put scanner on it. dont think it will be the same shop
  24. just stock heavy duty converter, took pan off today clean nothing at all in it. if the converter was bad would I find something in the pan ?
  25. Iam back busy . so no warranty because of 12/12 work was 22 months ago. so if the converter is bad would I find any thing in the pan when I pull it off? could the pressure solenoid cause this problem? the valve body was replace with stock about a month ago. the converter will work fine driving around town as long as it don't lock up, once it does it don't unlock when I stop unless I turn it off and sometimes it still does not unlock. does this help ?
