I have the same problem with my '98 Trooper - the TOD light, that is. Took it to a good shop for diagnosis. They said the TOD sensor was bad and it would cost abot $480 for the part. We were looking at a hefty bill, so decided to do without TOD for now. Manual 4WD still works fine. They said that Isuzu's arrogance that the transmission wouln't leak leaves us with a tiny 1/4" check port to fill through. We got concerned enough, and had over 180,000 miles, that we took it to a transmission shop and had it flushed and refilled correctly. To be honest, we now have 230,000 miles and don't really see any ATF leaks.

I want to add transmission fluid to my 1999 Pntiac Grand AM it does not have a dip stick

I would ask why you want to add fluid? Are you seeing fluid leakage under the vehicle or is it just driving differently all of a sudden? These transmission are designed to have a transmission service done that drops a percentage of the total amount of fluid out, and allows for filter replacement at the same time. Unfortunately, the filling procedure is a little tricky because it involves removing the vent/fill cap from the top of the transmission and then removing the fluid level check plug under the transmission just above where the pan bolts on on the passenger side of the vehicle. Fill up and until fluid comes out the check hole. Not an easy process, but that's it in a nut shell. I would also recommend doing an image search for the diagram if you plan on doing this yourself.

How can i find out what's wrong with the transmission in my 99' Chevy Silverado Z71?

Have you checked the fluid level? Plus the color of the fluid. It could just need a transmission fluid & filter change.

Transmission slips all the time... is the transmission goin out?

I assume you have an automatic transmission; most of the time when people with manual transmissions get slippage, they start moaning about a bad clutch.

If the transmission fluid is clean and at the proper level, and the filter screen is not clogged, then you have a bad torque converter seal or a problem with the transmission itself.

Check the fluid first. If it is low, add fluid according to the directions in the owner's manual, put some disposable paper or cardboard under the vehicle, run the transmission through each gear, then check the paper or cardboard for drip marks indicating a leak. If the fluid is dirty, has metallic particles in it, or smells burned, it's time to talk to a transmission overhaul shop.

Can't find where to put automatic transmission fluid

there are two areas where you can add fluid from the front of the vehicle, doesnt matter what kind of car it is, one is for checking the oil the other is for the transmission fluid, but before you add transmission fluid i recommend your flush out the old transmission fluid first so all the grimey old fluid is out and at the same time can notice if any bits of metal are floating around
