I have a 94 LeSebre and I put a trans out 92 LeSebre the problem is it
reverse and takes off in either drive or second but never shifts. Could
it be thottle postion senser and where is it located?

Thanks much

I may likely be wrong but isn't the 92 a 4T60 and the
94 a 4T60E ?

That sounds right. But why would someone put a tranny in a car that doesn't
have all the plugs for the wires to go into? That doesn't sound right.

That is what I thought too.  Don't trust my memory about things like this,
though.

When I researched this once before, seems that I found that there is no way
in practice to make the E work in that application.

Pretty sure 92 was an electronic unit also.

You're good shep. The 1992 is also a 4T60E. However, doing the cross
reference, I see this:

Even when searching www.car-parts.com, the only transmissions listed as
compatible are 1994 and 1995 models. My opinion is that the electronics in
the 1992 4T60E are not compatible with the 1995 PCM.

All the plugs were the same and no wires left over. I,m 99% sure that
it was a 92 4T60E.  I will check this later today. The orginal trans
for the 94 had no reverse or any forward gears. I bought the 92 because
it was wrecked thought I could use the parts.

But thanks for the info,

Good work Steve, good possibility there, might only be software issues but
who knows?

Doing some more research. The 1992 ECM is 16141470 and the 1995 PCM is
16183247. The 1995 PCM uses the same ALDL8192 communications as my 1995
Monte Carlo 16196401, however the 16183247 uses the 27C512 EPROM while mine
uses the 27C256 EPROM.

Aside from that, the 1992 ECM uses the older ALDL160 communictions. So, in
conclusion, I agree the problem with the OP's transmission is most likely
communication issue. The newer PCM just can't control the old tranny.

16141470
Application:1991-93 3.8 V6 SFI "L" L27 (exc. "W" body)
1991-93 3.8 V6 SFI supercharged "1" L67
