Check engine light on , check DTC'S - diagnostic trouble codes ! Check Engine Light On If not familiar with this take it to a ASE certified repair shop or dealer . 3rd limp mode ? Do you have a message in the DIC - driver information center , reduced power mode ?
ENGINE POWER IS REDUCED
Engine Control Module Description for the 4.8L, 5.3L, 6.0L and 6.2L engine
probably not if it is limp mode
the ECM puts the car in limp mode to prevent serious problems in the engine or transmission
could be no coolant, sump oil , transmission oil etc
run the fault codes and find the reason for the mode
Hi Mary, You have not told us the vehicle make or model, or basically anything we can use to determine what fault it may have. Take your vehicle to a reputable garage and ask them to carry out a diagnostic scan. Regards John
The transmission control module is expensive and if the valve body solenoids went bad, then you didn't get a raw deal. Labor, parts and fluid are about right price wise.
You could not fix it on your own without a lot of tools and knowledge of the transmission.
That happened to my '95 OLDS Aurora... Turned out to be 1&2 gear shift solenoid had "popped" out. He replaced new solenoids and a factory patch kit and ****** shifts like brand new. Hope that helps you cause that was less than 10% the cost of a new/rebuilt transmission!
