@DEEBOYYUNG20 You could try to change the filter and add some new fluid in if you haven't already.

Hi Buddy, I have a 93 ford Truck E-350 1 Ton Econoline - Van and something happened with the transmission (automatic), full fluid level its OK but when into 1 and 2 .... the truck runs good but for 3rd and 4th the RPMs go up and up (foot on gas accelerating), but the truck doesn't speed up .... i'm stuck on 1st and 2nd...

-Solenoid problem ?

-Should I reset by disconnecting battery ?

-No OD light flashes in dashboard.

-No ''CHECK ENGINE'' light.

Thanks for any help ...

@djlaiguana1 You may want to have a transmission shop take a look at it. It could be a worn over drive band, or a TV cable that needs to be adjusted.

I meant to tell you mine is not freyed at the motor

[dustinstube1]

Hi I have a 91 suburban having the same symptoms..... The late shifting... What happens? Does it break and get stuck in the cable sleeve?

[1aauto]

@dustinstube1 Sometimes they can break or even stretch over time causing late shifting symptoms.

Do u have to have the tv cable on a 700r4 trans because my 95 c1500 dosent

[1aauto]

@Greenmonoluche It the truck came with one, then it should be on there. This is what helps the transmission to shift properly.

i have a 1994 chevy cheyenne and it dont shift its stuck in last gear im guessing is there a way to fix it?? or does this video fix that??

[1aauto]

@jblions95 If this cable is broke or stretched, this video would help.

[jblions95]

i looked in motor and i didnt see a detent cable in it... its a 1994 chevy cheyyene

[1aauto]

@jblions95 It should have one on there. Not sure if it's a new to you truck and the previous owner may have removed it. If it has the 700R4 transmission this video will show you where it's located.

@jblions95 your truck probably has a 4L60E which does NOT have a detent cable.....try changing the TPS

my 85 k10 doesnt down shift or no passing gear when i floor it. could it be the cable?

[1aauto]

@morris51772 Automatic transmissions are a pretty intricate thing. It could be that the cable needs to be adjusted, or even the fluid may have to be changed if it's dark.

[ArtysticImpressions]

would it prevent the tranny from shifiting from 1st to 2nd?

[1aauto]

@ArtysticImpressions It may.

[sexybologna111]

Would this cable prevent the tranny from shifting from 2nd to 3rd?

[1aauto]

@sexybologna111 If not adjusted right it may.

i wish i wouldve found this video sooner

[TheRroocckkeerr]

Awesome. Extremely helpful. I thought mine was just out of adjustment, turns out it was bad. Simple fix and got my transmission working properly again. Thank you for this video.

[MrDuneBilly]

Good Show!

Awesome video! Just what I was looking for. I have to replace the kick down on my 85 El Camino and this definitely explains why I have no passing gear. My cable is frayed as well. Aloha!
