    Hey Mike, Thanks for heading me in the right direction. Those four connectors, on the transmission control box out under the hood on the firewall, definitely were a problem with my PT not shifting out of 1st gear. But just cleaning them did not solve my problem. Mine turned out to be the rectangular rubber gaskets inside the removable connector. They expand and push the connector away from the transmission box and lose connection. This happens when they get hot causing the rectangular gaskets to expand. Looking into the plug you can see one per connector. They are light blue in color and are very soft flexible rubber. Using a sharp pointed tool I removed the gaskets and now they snap back easily to the transmission control box. No problem now with shifting. I realize the gaskets are there to keep the connections dry and clean. So as you reconnect each plug use a piece of electrical tape to seal them.

    My 2004 PT Cruiser will sometimes stay in second gear after running , but it won't shift to third gear unless I do a
    quick off / on with the ignition switch and then it will shift into third or fourth gear , but not always . I sometimes have
    to shift into "NEUTRAL" after I did the "OFF / ON " switch , wait a few seconds , then shift back into "DRIVE" so that it
    will shift into third gear .
    I have always thought that it was dirty connectors because the problem was intermittent . I will try your method
    this weekend and let you know what I found out .

      I drive an 06 PT Cruiser GT
      Although i havent been able to get a fuse box or tipm as they call it
      Part number 56049719AH
      They tell me they have to order one from the dealer ship and that they're on back order.
      i live in Florissant where it rains and snows every other day this winter. Havent been able to get one from a junk yard that's not soaked.
      They all tell me that there's a difference between a touring and gt, or they'll have to have a dealer ship program it.
      I can't drive to a dealership because my car is in limp mode 25 miles an hour

    My car it has a similar issue where if I try to put it in drive or reverse it doesn’t move in this. Happened yesterday but all day before the Internet the car was driving fine I managed to check the oil in the transmission and it was a bit low so I editor and that seem to fix it for a moment but the car would jolt from a stop to accelerating

    I have an automatic 2004 pt cruiser and yesterday it just up and stopped reversing and I reset the tcm/pcm and cleaned the connectors and still nothing so I'm pretty sure I'm going to need a new transmission

    I have a 2004 with an automatic transmission that won' t shift above 3rd gear,otherwise no other mechanical issue is this any easy fix with a module or solenoid?

    • @256mike
      @256mike  5 лет назад +5

      Do you have any codes? This is what I will do first if I was you. check the connections on the TCM and clean it also check the wiring, that it is also in good condition. Check the condition of the fluid, it should be a nice lite red and not dark red. If dark red then you need to change your trans fluid ATF +4! It's synthetic, don't forget the filter. Could be a solenoid but like I said need a code first so you don’t start spending money on parts you don’t need. Clean all the plugs one by one tic transmission and have auto zone check your battery. Your wipers work like they supposed to or you having problems? My radio went bad when I was driving on my 2002 neon and the car wouldn’t start there was a message on the dashboard No bus. Chryslers, dodge , Jeep are build with cheap Chinese parts just like there sister fia lmao 😂. I’m always working on them. Good luck
