The saga goes on, had the sealership read the codes (23) and (62). 23 was the FIRL sensor, replaced and could not clear code 62 with the code reader. Disconnected batteries and the code cleared. Drove for 20 miles and things were back the way they should be, then o/d started flashing and shifts were hard (the trans shifts thru all gears and the torque converter locks up) Code 62 is the torque converter clutches (i think) How can you determin if it really is the torque converter or is there another thing to do?

 

62 can also be generated by other non electronic related transmission hardware system.

Check all the trans electrical connections especially the one on the right side with the tin cover, remove the tin heat shield, remove the solenoid connector by pushing on the center tab and pulling up on the wire harness. To install push down until a click is heard. Always reinstall the tin heat shield.

When you replaced the FIPL did you set the voltages correctly........

 

Yes the FIPL was set according to factory. All the sensors (except the one on the side of the trans) are new, FIPL, Tack and the VSS. Will try the connector but I think I did that this time before replacing the FIPL

 

Might want to try this too........

Automatic Transmission Shift Rod or Shift Cable Adjustment... C6 and E4OD

1 Raise vehicle on jack stands or hoist. (I'd block well and scramble under)

2 From inside the vehicle, place the select lever in D/C6 and OD/E4OD . Hang a three

pound weight on the selector lever ( six pack still full)

3 Remove shift cable from the transmission lever ball stud/shift rod.

4 Pull down the lock tab on the shift cable body.

5 Position transmission lever in drive position. This is three detents from the front-most

lever position with the first position counting as one.

6 Connect the cable and end fitting to the transmission lever ball stud/shift rod.

7 Push up on the lock tab to lock the cable in the correctly adjusted position or tighten nut

and bolt.

8 Remove jack stands and lower vehicle from hoist. Remove three pound weight from

column shift select lever.

9 After making adjustment, check for Park engagment. Check the transmission control lever

in all detent positions with the engine running to make sure correct detent/transmission

actions, readjust if necessary. Reset the PRNDL indicator as required.

CAUTION:
Under no circumstances will it be permissible to adjust the cable/shift rod in any position

other than D for C6 or OD for E4OD.

Now all should be ok if it is in PARK and everything works, remove blocks.

Road test...................(drink warm beer)
