Transmission Resistor...

Well, I bought one of OT's remanufactured transmission resistors to try and eliminate that hard 1st to 2nd shift, but it didn't help... Where do I go from here? It's been like this for 3 years since I owned the car and has never got any worse. I was all excited that my problem would be solved, too. :[

Re: Transmission Resistor...

Update: I took the resistor out completely and drove around without any resistor... hardly any difference at all.

OK,
(you did not buy it from me...)
Does your power light still flash at start up?

Re: Transmission Resistor...

I bought one you made from Tim! :rolleyes: He didn't need it since he has a 5 speed now. But yes, the 16 flashes went when the resistor was taken off. When it was put back, no more flashes.

OK, do you have a stock transmission?

Yes sir, I do. It isn't the original, though. The VIN's don't match.
