AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE SHIFTS HARD
Some 1991, 1992 Scoupes with automatic transaxles may experience intermittent harsh shifting during first-to-seoond upshift and/or second-to-first
downshift at low vehicle speeds. Generally, this condition occurs when the pulse generator "B" loses continuity in connector "T01".
Excessive side load experienced by the pulse generator wires from engine movement and the restriction of a nearby tie wrap may cause the male/female
pins to distort and lose continuity in connector T01. To correct this hard shifting condition, use the service procedure listed.
SERVICE PROCEDURE:
Note:
Check and adjust transaxle fluid level prior to road testing if necessary.
1.
Verify that the M.U.T. (Multi-Use Tester) shows code 33 and /or code 13.
2.
Cut the tie wrap shown in Fig. 1 to relieve the tension on the pulse generator "B" wires.
3.
Separate the male and female portions of connector "T01".
