Just like the GM's, when it fails in the ON position, it acts like a manual-shift tranny when one tries to stop w/o depressing the clutch--it stalls in forward or reverse. HTH, s so it is a normaly closed switch..like the old 400 kickdown sol..so i should be able to take it out and clean it. i need a web site that i can get diagrams and pictures for a 1995 ford taurus sdlomi2 Wrote: > > have a friend with a 1995 ford taurus..and the torque converter > dosent [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] > reverse. > HTH, s It closes or comes on in higher gears when the pcm wants lockup. You might check brake light switch for pcm first. If the solenoid is acting up replace it. A good repair manual or. http://www.alldata.com/products/diy/index.html Will take you threw the checks and operation of replacing it. Crunch  SignatureMT-2500 http://www.automotiveforums.com |
