NOTE:

THIS BULLETIN APPLIES TO VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH A 41TE/AE BUILT BEFORE AUGUST 8, 1998 (MDH O8O8XX) OR 42LE
TRANSAXLE THROUGH THE 1997 MODEL YEAR.

SYMPTOM/CONDITION:
Intermittent loss of speed control condition persists after either the transaxle input speed sensor or output speed sensor has been replaced. The sensor
connectors should be checked for spread terminals.

DISCUSSION:
The input/output speed sensor supplier changed effective with the 1998 model year for LH vehicles and August 8, 1998 for 41TE/AE equipped vehicles.
The terminal layout is slightly different between the old and new sensors. When a new sensor is installed on an early vehicle the connector terminals may
be spread from the original sensor and may cause an intermittent speed control condition. Anytime a new sensor is installed on an early vehicle the
connector must also be replaced.

PARTS REQUIRED:

1

05014469AA

Wiring Repair Package, Input Speed Sensor

1

05014471AA

4.

If required, detach the harness clip above the input/output sensors and detach the O2 sensor fastener (Christmas tree type fastener).

5.

Remove the end tape from the input/output harness and push back the convolute tubing.
