CHECK TRANSMISSION Light!! What should i do?
94 fd3s Automatic. I will be driving for about 4 miles then it the check transmission light comes on. I was thinking about changing the fluid today even before this light came on. there still is fluid in it now. Just wanna try to fix it myself. There are no tranny shops around.
thanks Frank |
check the oil level
might want to check the owner's manual or FSM for what the light might mean. FSM can be downloaded from the stickied FAQ thread |
get this to a trans shop asap! these transmissions can't take abuse. if the light is on you have a problem. tow it to a shop before you do more damage

Pull the codes for the tranny and see what it says. Definitely don't ignore this or you will be toast, along with your transmission.

The tranny codes, and the procedure to get them (jumper TAT & GND), begin on page K214 of the FSM (the "Self-diagnosis" entry in section K).

i dont have section k from the fsm
i have sections A,C,D,E,F,G,H,J,L,M,N,P,Q,R,S,ST,TD all saved on my comp as .pdf files. if there is anyone who knows where i can get the gaps filled from my service manual. well i got to bring it in to a tranny shop. its real strange how it is just running and shifting fine. whacky anyways thanks again every little bit helps/

You can find the entire FSM here:
http://www.wrex-racing.com/web/fd/info.htm#Docs wReX-Racing.com It's a single pdf file that's been zipped up, but it's still a pretty big d/l. It's similar to getting ECU codes, except jumper TAT to GND and the "HOLD indicator" will blink the code number. (I've never tried it, though -- don't have an auto.) |
