In the steering column. These are way different than today's models.

Sounds like the computer is in limp home mode. You need to put a scanner on it and see if there is a code in the computer. Hope this helps.

Their is no such thing on this transmission Why don't you try to explain the problem you are having I know a great deal about your vehicle.

There is a clip inside that holds a pin through the booster shaft and brake pedal assembly. This clip is not always easy to find or get off.

CO502 is a Vehicle Speed Sensor Code. I'm working on trying to resolve an issue with my own right now. I know I had some wiring issues a while back with the VSS and thought I had it all resolved. I didn't know that I still had an issue until I was installing my Hypertech Max Energy Power Programmer today when it gave me this code.

Tires are probably shorter than the ones that originally came on the truck check the size on the sticker in the driver door jamb

Located on the passenger side of the block by the starter either the sensor is bad or the wire is bad

OK this is a find how do you do!!!

• First approach go to a used car dealer with heavy wire that can be bent to fit up under the hood.
• Find similar model to your 1998 and open hood.
• Need pliers. Bend the wire in such a way that it will not interfere with the hood when it is closed but catch the release lever that the cable is attached to.
• Test it a few times and thank the sales guy or friend that let you make the tool on the model car.
• Take the tool home and use tool. Temporarily attach cord/wire to under hood latch allowing the end to come out the front with a loop. That will be your temp latch release.

This system does not use the ignition module used on the DI systems in the past. The VCM controller now controls the ignition control (IC) and bypass functions. The crankshaft sensor, located in the front engine cover, is perpendicular to a target wheel attached to the crankshaft. The target wheel is equipped with slots situated 60 degrees apart. As the crankshaft rotates, the target wheel rotates past the crankshaft position sensor. The rising and falling edges created by the slots cause a signal to be sent back to the VCM. This signal occurs three times per crankshaft revolution and is referred to as the 3x signal for V6 applications. The signal occurs four times per crankshaft revolution and is referred to as the 4x signal for V8 applications. The VCM then utilizes this 3x (V6) or 4x (V8) signal in order to provide the correct spark to the engine by way of the single coil driver module. The single coil driver module is basically an electronic switch that when commanded by the VCM, causes the primary coil voltage to breakdown, energizing the secondary coil and providing a spark via the coil wire to the distributor cap. The distributor consists of the following components: The system consists of the following components: ?€¢ Vehicle control module (VCM)

?€¢ Distributor

?€¢ Ignition coil driver module

?€¢ Ignition coil

?€¢ Crankshaft position (CKP) sensor

Now which part do you want to replace ? ?€¢ Cap and rotor

?€¢ Camshaft position sensor

?€¢ Gear drive and shaft

The camshaft drives the distributor shaft which rotates providing a spark to the correct cylinder by way of the cap and rotor. The camshaft position (CMP) sensor functions much like the crankshaft sensor previously described but provides only a 1x signal to the VCM. That is, for every 2 rotations of the crankshaft, there is 1 rotation of the camshaft. Note that the camshaft position sensor will not affect driveability. The sole purpose of the camshaft position sensor is to provide the VCM with the necessary information for the misfire diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs).

check your entire ignition system especially the ignition control module

Check the tail shaft on the transmission it is normally located there. it will have either one or two wires coming out of it.

Here is a link that will help you get that info. well it doesn't want to paste. go to google search ask for freon capacities for your vehicle, click on the first link.

I think from 96 till 04 they where the same,,, i may be wrong,,, on the ps of tranny there is a large round plug count the pins,, it could be 96 to 02,,, a transmission shop could tell you,, sorry i could not help

No way you must change ignition barel wit key

If it has spark to the plugs, normal compression, and fuel, it should start. So assuming it does have normal compression, I would want to know if it will try to start by spraying carb cleaner into the throttle body to substitute the injector spray. One of the three components is missing. Another thing to check is the distributor cap and rotor to make sure spark is reaching all of the plugs at the right time.

There should be a fuse in front of the relay. The fuse could be under the hood near the battery or near the firewall. Some fuses are under the dash next to driver. Hope this helps.

Check the coil first make sure getting a good blue spark orange is questional . Also check the fuel filter .It sounds like eighter electrical or fuel problem. If the MAPP sensor didn't make any differance in how it runs its probably not a vacuum but dubble check do the brakes work good a leak in the vacuum booster controll unit would cerate a vacuum problem or any vac lines not connected . Also pull a couple of plugs they should look like a tan color and be dry if black and oily to rich or oil problems to much gas .If white to lean a fuel restriction problem or air leak to much air entering cylinders

There are 6 bolts from the trans to the engine.. Did you get them all? There are 2 dowel pins aligning the two as well, they sometimes get stuck. Pry and shake them but be careful! If you need further help, I’m available over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/justin_3ae27a9d61d6acd4

Hello, I'm no trying to be "smart". I would make double sure ALL the bolts are removed. Good luck.
