    I have a engine light with p07a3 ...
    But the symptom is not really consistent. Sometimes no symptoms. Sometimes can't shift to S mode and it's starts to slip. And when u r able to shift to S mode and use manual shifting. The shifting is perfect...

      Could be a little bit of binding in the fork. I'd follow the directions in my video and if the forks a little bit stuck spray a little bit of penetrating oil on it with the actuator pulled put

      Hi!
      Did you manage to fix your problem? I get the exact same problems on mine.

      @@c_ciumy I did took out both actuators spray a bit of brake clean not too much and a bit of WD 40. Rotate it with special tools couple of times making sure they wasnt binding. And now it only act up one time ever since. (suddenly lost 2nd gear and heard a winding sound, engine rpm goes up, and then when let go the gas pedal it almost stall out, but after I put into N, engine stabilized, and the gear shifting goes back to normal without issue again)
      . I think I need to replace the actuators maybe it was gaving out. I had tried to get quotes to get a clutch job but many repair shop refuse to do it. And the one does cuz 2700. Lol . I'm thinking of getting the luk clutch kit and go to a shop that let u borrow their bay and lift to do the clutch job my self.

    Would it help if there was a direct ground wire from the TCM casing and straight to the negative battery post?

    • @BigBensCarsAndCycles
      @BigBensCarsAndCycles  Год назад +1

      Not in this situation. I believe the actuator is locked up internally. If you keep getting a p0606 or u0100 u0101 after replacing the tcm multiple times then yes I'd consider another ground (the alternator may be weak in that situation as well)

  • @martinmartinez8161
    @martinmartinez8161 10 месяцев назад

    Isn't the clutch side of the transmission supposed to be dry? Even if the tcm has a bad oring there shouldn't be any oil leaking out correct? I would assume the signifies a bad seal on the input shaft?

    • @BigBensCarsAndCycles
      @BigBensCarsAndCycles  10 месяцев назад +1

      Hi.. the leak was coming from the tcm area which is separate from the clutch housing

    Hey bud, I got an issue w my 17 Focus. 2.0 N/A I took a 2k mile road trip across Texas. Now my engine is having issues receiving gas :/. At 1st it was on the road, everything stayed on but the engine died, now it only happens when I pump gas, it has issues at the beginning wanting to start but then dies, after a min getting the revs up it works but I definitely have loss of power :/ any idea on how to DIY this sh*t ._.

      @wholietta I believe that the dealer would order it from rotunda. So either way it's shipping. You can take an old clutch actuator apart and weld a socket to the splined shaft

    • @loganpennington9104
      @loganpennington9104 8 месяцев назад

      it’s probably just a transmission code but maybe there’s a chance if it was overfilled it caused extra pressure and the seal in the bell housing started leaking and caused a fork to become stuck

    • @BigBensCarsAndCycles
      @BigBensCarsAndCycles  Год назад

      P0734? That's an incorrect gear ratio code. Are you sure that's the right code you have? I normally see that on hydraulic automatics

    • @BigBensCarsAndCycles
      @BigBensCarsAndCycles  Год назад +1

      i double checked and that's not a valid code for a focus. If you're getting a P073(x) code, then odds are the syncronizer is worn. But if the forks are seized, and you never heard a syncro grind, I'd do the clutch job with forks and slave cylinder. Then service the transmission with acdelco friction modified syncromesh
