    SO glad you posted this! I was messing with the shift cable for HOURS and finally decided to take a look at this part and see if there was something that could be awry with it. Sure 'nough this is my EXACT problem. I have P>2 and N has 2 positions on the indicator, but I have all gears just the display was messed up.

    Well explained. should've brought up the notches having to line up. Just a quick tip** The digutal display when lined up properly will show an underline of the position it is in. If the line under park or buettal isn't there, The reading is invalid and will cause a no crank condition due to the fact it doesn't see the position it is In. 🤙🤙

    Hi, Thanks for the great video :) Quick question, before doing this, should you put the gear on the dashboard on Neutral position? so that the cable is on neutral length? when you install the switch is on Neutral and the shaft is on neutral position.

    I have a 05 trailblazer with this transmission. Yesterday I left the grocery store and took off from a light and it was like the car was in 3rd gear. I pulled over and put it in park. Pulled the shifter back into drive and the same thing. Like it's in 3rd. So I put it in reverse. Backed up 2 feet and stopped abruptly. Several times I did this. No change. I limped it home. Today after work I jacked up the rear and put it in 2wd. Started the car, the rear wheels spin forward in every gear including neutral and reverse. Even acts like it wants to pull forward in park. Any idea on what's going on here? I installed this rebuilt transmission a year and a half ago myself. No problems until now.

I've had the trailblazer for 3 years and have installed 2 transmissions in it already. Lol its time to learn how to fix em.

    did you file the shaft before installing? These shafts are mushroomed from the factory and must be slightly filed or it will ruin the new switch.

    • @thisisyourtransmission
      @thisisyourtransmission  5 лет назад

      Never filed the shaft ever in many years. The only loose ranges switches have been aftermarket ones. Original equipment switches fit tighter. I will check for what you say about mushroom shafts closer. However, I have never seen a mushroomed shaft. Also, I have seen switches that have never been off that have worn out on the shaft and become loose.

    • @trevorcline6095

  • @johnward5890
    @johnward5890 2 года назад

    I have a problem something like that but my shaft is moving to much on the inner linkage spur inside the transmission pan. It either the pin or the spur that is wore out, i guess it would be called to much back lash where the spur mounts to the selector shaft that you are gluing, but on the other end of that shaft. It makes for a very sloppy shifter but all the lights on the dash work fine, it just doesn't want to shift through all the gears properly. This could make a mechanic think the Transmission was mission 3rd and 4th gear if he didn't open the Bottom of the case and look at the shifter spur on the inside. Park is from P to Neutral, D overdrive is as fare as the shifter will go down around the 1st gear spot on the dash selector section This really screws up the neutral safety switch and the Computer on a 1998 K1500. Just something to look out for.

I lost my gear indicator lights on my dash and my trans stopped working. bought a used trans installed everything indicator lights on dash where back on like normal and the trans worked as it should until the shift cable broke and my indicator lights on dash went back out n trans stopped working completely again.. dropped driveshaft to prevent getting ran over took everything off shift rod and shifted it manually all gears spun driveshaft but after installing it back to rear end and repeated same steps I had no change in results and still no indication lights on dash.. does that sensor stop the trans from operating completely???

    @tnwilson1050 3 года назад

    That would certainly work for a while until a seeping seal works the glue loose and it falls off. Use a wirefeed and build up the keyway on the shaft itself so it takes all of the freeplay out of the mechanism. DONT WELD THE SHAFT WHEN IT IS IN THE TRANSMISSION. The heat will destroy the oil seal behind it and create unnecessary heat. It is fairly simple to remove the entire assembly away from the transmission if you remove the pan.

    • @thisisyourtransmission

      First, the metal piece is for lining up the neutral switch when it is being put on. Second, You have to check it. You have to have someone put it in gear ( with the truck off ignition on) an see it the switch is loose on the shaft.

      I had taken my Suburban to Amco Transmission to confirm that it wasn't shifting to Overdrive and they Agreed with me, but the Mechanic said it was working correctly. But I don't think so, so now it sits till I can come up with Another $3.000 to get it fixed RIGHT, WHAT A B---- !!

  • @ericcm6936
    @ericcm6936 2 года назад

    You absolutely do not have to add super glue to this. The switch is mildly adjustable. If you tilt the switch clock wise or counter clockwise the plastic teeth will butt up against the teeth on the transmission lever and "slop" will be removed. Also within the switch is quite a large "safety" area where it will and will not allow start. 99.9% of the time, a quick install will work just fine and that tiny bit of play will not matter at all, if it did, the great "allison" trans designers wouldn't be so great.

    My 03 tahoe wont shift into 1st or 4th gear. I replaced both shift shift solenoids already. Can the trans range sensor be the problem?

      elnacho214 if it is showing the correct readings, then no the range sensor is not the problem.
