INOPERATIVE TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH - THM 200-4R
Some 1983 "C" cars equipped with THM 200-4R transmissions may experience a condition of an inoperative torque converter clutch. On DFI equipped
vehicles, a code 39 would also be present. This condition may be caused by the torque converter clutch harness locating clip grounding the wiring to the
transmission control valve assembly.
