please specify you problem, you mean your trans does not ship until 3000 rpm? or it shifts down? pleas be more specific. These cars are known for having trans computer issues, also soenoid problems, is your engine light on? Need DETAILS.
I suggest to check trans fluid level and quality (color and odor), other choice could be a valve solenoids problem (if automatic trans). In order to check will need take off trans oil pan.
Did you have any work done to your transmission recently? If you did and it was done buy a transmission shop shame on them. This is an internal problem that occurs when the trans valve body is removed on your trans which I believe to be a A606/42LE. There is a shift plate at the bottom of the shift lever, this plate can get bent if the steering wheel shifter is not placed into the lowest gear before removing the valve body. This is an easy fix , but everything has to come out again. You would have to see it to understand. So if this was done ,this is your answer, if not then it maybe your shift cable. It may need replacing our lubrication. GOOD LUCK.
check for vaccum leak at map sensor or anywhere else no vaccum to map will show up as bad because the computer watches the voltage on it and the vaccum changes that voltage , no vaccum meens no voltage change and computer throws the light on to let you know there's a problem somewhere.
I too have a 2002 dodge Intrepid, after 10 minutes of driving the car, when i make a stop it won't shift properly, in order to make it shift, i have to turn the ignition off and back up again!
If anyone can help me locate the TCM that would be great.
I'm ready to drive it off a cliff
Thanks in advance!
Ya, trans is done. Internal failure is common on these as well as the caravan - same internal parts, same internal problems. A salvage yard can tell you what years will work with their interchange manuals
two issues here. this may be a low fluid issue. i would check the level of the fluid first. the next issue could be a blown shift solenoid. these are located inside of the transmission pan.also, check the filter as well.(transmission filter could be clogged)
Iv'e ran across this before, Try this.. unhook the postive Battery terminal for a few minutes then replace. I had the same problem with my intrepid years ago and it took care of it and never had a problem with again! Hope this works for You!
The MAP sensor and Knock Sensor are both very easily replaced. A better scanner will tell you which sensor is going bad on your transmission. An Autozone code reader will not tell you which sensor on the trans. is acting up. Most sensors on your trans. are very easity replaced as well. They just screw in and plug it. It's worth paying to get a "real" scan done. The trans. sensors are inexpensive and you can replace any other your listed sensors yourself.
