Big Problem?

[RSVT]

i need as much input as i can get on this, my truck is not running right, first of all my overdrive lite on the shifter keeps binkin off/on, when i put it in drive it doesnt go, all you hear is the mufflers popin, this also occurs when i put it in first gear, i can only get the truck to move if i have on 2nd gear and there is a funny smell like burn wires or something:crying: , Has this ever happen to any of yall, PLEASE HELP ME OUT GUYS

O/D light flashing means you have trans problem and codes are stored. Smell the trans fluid off the dipstick. Maybe harness burning on the header or other problem.

check engine lite just came on, i just got a transmission flush about 1 and half ago at Nichols Ford

[L8 APEX]

Then I would take it up with them. Make sure to check the fluid level before they can tamper with it.

[RSVT]

the gears kick in ,but when press the gas thats when the mufflers make the poppin noise

Have u checked the coils? Thats what mine was doing when I had some bad coils.

[RSVT]

havent checked yet but will do so, i got to take it back to Nichols Ford tomorrow

How many miles on the trans. and have you kept the fluid changed, I would pull out the dip stick and see if there is any clutch on it or if it smells burnt.

my truck has about 72,000 miles on it, i just changed the trans fluid about a week and a half ago

Sounds like my L did about 6 months ago. Check the wiring harness like Terry said. Thats what was wrong with mine. It had fallin down one the manifold and melted to it causing a short.

I agree I would check fror any burnt or melted wires, How often do yall change tranny fluid?

Sorry PC froze up:eek:

If that was your first tranny change it may be toast. When you wait a long time and it starts getting nasty in there once you put in the new stuff if I remember correctly it starts breaking the gunk down and will mess it up. I was told if you wait too long you might as well not even do it because of that exact problem.

my first trans flush in 1 year thats how long ive had it for, what you said is what i was thinkin

[slick-svt]

Thats one of those things were you don't know how it was driven before you got it, Did you get it from a dealership?

[L-Fever]

What kind of transmission fluid did they use?

You should use MERCON/DEXRON III only or equivalent synthetic transmission fluid.

Ford dealership should know what to put i these truck, I just got back from up there and r sayin it is a motor problem, i think this is the time to build my motor:hammer:

[keynan]

RSVT it might not be your motor, like terry said if your o/d light flashes you have trouble codes that are coming from your trans. Another thing your stall might have locked up that's what mine has done in the past, matter of fact Terry has my truck for the very same thing. I also have a check engine light on but mine is from O2 sensores. If you can just take it to Terry.

i dont know if this has been said yet but there is a fuse on mine that blew once and caused similar issues, its a 15 amp i think in the fuse box under the hood, and its the fuse closest to the front of the truck

I know I met one of you guys out at Kennedale awhile back. Not sure which one but it was definitely Lawerence's old ride.

[slick-svt]

When I bought mine from Southwest Ford it only had 6500mi on it and they told me the same thing, but the rear tires were half bald.
Did you get the engine for life program?
