Where is the transmission relay at on a 2002 Mitsubishi Lancer ES?

The Transmission is stuck in something called limp mode. I am m wondering if the relay is blown or has any other malfunctions. i hooked my computer up to the car to check it and the error codes P1400-MDP Sensor and P1751-TCM control relay appeared.

The transmission does not have a fuse, only a power-up relay located in the under hood fuse panel, near the front of the panel.

If there is a problem with this relay, your transmission will reduce to fail safe mode only. Fail safe is the mechanical-only control which leaves you with Park, Reverse and 3rd gear only, provided there are no internal failures.

What exactly is the problem you are having?

    The car is not changing gears smoothly I've changed the gearbox thinking and told that was the problem with it , it drove fine a couple of times and now it's doing the same thing plus it don't want to idle in drive but will in neutral it flutters the when taking off and now was told it's the TCM would that be the cause ?

SOURCE: transmission error code P1750

Might be really simple - but EXPENSIVE! I had a similar fault - apparently the first planet set breaks up. Cure - a new box. Price - crippling!

Don't be tempted to skimp on the box. Get a rebuild from a reputable supplier. A s/h box will set you back around £5-600 in UK where a rebuilt (guaranteed) will be more like £1800. The thing with the cheap box is it costs about the same to fit but you don't know how good it is till it's too late! Then you're still shopping for another but you're £600 lighter!

Also, you could be buying other faults. If the speed sensor has had a problem - the box will change badly (snatching) and that will be another £250 where the expensive box will have ahad one fitted!

SOURCE: where do i put the transmission fluid on a 2002

you can't put the transmission fluid in yourself on an auto or manual transmission for a 2002 lancer es. It has to be injected into the transmission through a nipple that is on the transmission.

SOURCE: 98 Mirage Stuck in Limp Mode

I had this problem with my 1998 Mirage. check for a short somewhere in the wires that you messed with. On my car I would replace the fuse and start it up again and it would run fine for a while but it kept blowing fuses. Everytime that it blew a fuse i noticed that the gear indicator light (for an automatic) wouldn't work everytime the fuse blew. I also noticed that it would blow one everytime i left the car in reverse for a good amount of time. As a joke my brother had installed a backup beeper under my bumper and wired it to my reverse lights so that it would beep everytime i put it in reverse. so i disconnected the beeper and it hasn't blown a fuse yet! kind of strange but i guess any short that is connected to that circut can put the tranny into safe mode.

The first thing you need to do is have the transmission control module scanned for fault codes.

The transmission appears to be stuck in "limp-in"

The Transmission Relay is in the Power Distribution Box. It's one of the 3 smaller identical relays underneath the row of 7 larger identical relays. It's the top one immediately below the larger relays. Between the Park Lamp(Larger Relay) & Fuel Pump (Smaller Relay).

Fuse #14 is also for the Transmission Relay.

Most likely the transmission. Could be in the valve body or it may be the reverse clutch piston seal (if it is a separate unit) and lastly it may be something stuck in the fluid passages in the transmission body.

My trans is stuck in second gear. Is that what

The town and country vans are know for transmission problems and it would not be stuck in 2nd gear if it was in limp mode. Limp mode typically controls the engine. I have seen people do a transmission flush/filter and add lucas to temporary fix the problem. There is also a good chance that the transmission has a solenoid problem preventing it from shifting into any other gears but second. Hope this helps!

2002 Impala: transmission limp mode...

Most transmissions have a limp mode, or limp-home mode.
If the driveline computer thinks there is something wrong, it can lock the transmission into one gear, such as 2nd gear. Usually reverse will also be available. The Impala automatic has 4 speeds. 2nd speed or gear will get you home, but the engine rpms can get a little high. I wouldn't get on the expressway will in limp mode.
Before taking to the shop, you might want to try and reset limp mode by turning the car off for a couple minutes, or you may have to disconnect and reconnect the battery.
