They are controlled via the ECU, I would check cel etc, see whats going on with transmission sensors.
The EMPIRE
Cel? What's that?
check engine lights
sounds like a neutral safety switch try cranking it in neutral
Thx, I will try it n post results later
i did it, no difference. i turned the car around and it went into gear fine just wouldnt move like it should in drive
you need a tranny
thx =/
In civics 88-2000 the automatic controls are controled through the ECu, where as integra (up to 01) and accord automatic(up to 96) have a TCm, a separate controler for the transmission.
with sluggish pickup, no snatching, it sounds like the transmission pump/torque converer is going out. once this begins to fail, it is best ot replace with a used transmission or rebuild it by a reputable shop.
