The automatic transmission had 2 speed sensors. The input speed sensor and the output speed sensor which each of those had 2 or 3 wires per sensor if I remember correctly. So when the manual came around I had to wire in 3 wires from the manual speed sensor and the forum wasn't really specific on...
I've read a few threads and looked at a bunch of pictures. They were pretty straight forward and easy to follow but now I've run into some issues. My car has 2 computers because of the automatic trans that I swapped to manual. The speed sensor was wired into the automatic TCU as that forum had...
So to begin, I've decided to clean up my bay and remove parts that serve no use to me. I plan to do a turbo 420A build in the future too. I'm also planning to do a wire tuck while I'm at it. So far I've removed A/C, Power Steering, and Cruise Control. Along the way I've run into these two lines...
Not to bring back a dead thread but I feel like I should post my solution to this issue. I have since had my speedometer working properly and no issues with the transmission. Went to AutoZone and bought the smallest self-tapping screws we could find. Came in a pack of about 6 or 8. We took a...
My 95 420A Talon gives me issues all the time. As far as the lights flickering and the radio cutting out, I'd like to say check the alternator. I bought an new alternator from AutoZone and 6 months later it was shot. I have a subwoofer and it was drawing too much power. The first sign was the...
Okay, so I continued to mess with the IAC. I reinstalled the IAC since the motor tested fine. Manual said 38-52 Ohms. It's at 51. Tested the connector and it wasnt getting power through any of the 4 prongs. Tried to follow some wires and got lost. Looked for a pinout and can't find one. I was...
420A. So after I pulled the engine and transmission, put it all back together and started to have idling issues. No code at first. So I started the car and pulled the IAC Motor plug. Ran the same. Then plugged it back in and it threw a code. P0505. Took the IAC Motor out. Tested it. It's good...
Well I ended up going to the junkyard today and grabbed a new pair of shift cables to fix the problem, figuring I'd need a new one anyway since the boot was torn. Put them in tonight and it shifts properly now! Thought it might have been a bracket or something but turns out after we got the...
I can double check on that. My brother helped during this whole process. He hooked up the cables. When I seen them, they looked correct. I can double check them tomorrow and worst comes to worst I can just get new cables. I'm wondering if the the shifter was in gear inside the car when hooked...
Update: I took the alternator out and brought it to my local AutoZone. It was tested and failed. They gave me a new one under warranty along with my test results showing the old one being bad and the new one working. As far as shifting, it's still rough but I found the accordion lookin rubber...
So I had a problem with my speedometer. The part inside the trans slipped off. So we took the whole engine and trans out, took the trans apart, fixed the speedometer part. Upon putting it back in everything was smooth. Started it up and it had all its gears but its hard to shift into 1st, 3rd...
I got the Haynes service manual. Nothing about the trans in there though. And it gust sits in the grooves on the shaft. There's 2 bumps on the yellow ring that slip it into place. Just trying to find something with the same viscosity as superglue that will bond metal to plastic and won't be...
The yellow ring in this picture is what slipped off. I have the exact same problem. This picture is one I took at a junkyard. I took it apart there to know what I was in for without destroying mine. If you look on the inner-side of the yellow ring there's 2 grooves where it fits into place on...
So I know what's up with the speedometer and why it's not working. I know what the inside of the trans looks like too. The speedo gear slipped out of its notchs, to avoid this again, is there any substance I can use to hold it in place so it doesn't slip off again after I fix it? I know trans...
