TROUBLESHOOTING

Troubleshooting Checklist
Check the following items when shifting difficulty is
encountered.
• Engine idle speed is above specification
• Transmission fluid type/quality
• Loose or worn snap linkage bushings
• Worn linkage rod pivot end at the transmission
bellcrank
• Bent bellcrank
• Worn, broken or damaged internal transmission
components
NOTE: To determine if shifting difficulty is caused
by an internal transmission problem, isolate the
transmission by disconnecting linkage rod from
transmission bellcrank. Manually select each gear
range at the transmission bellcrank and test ride
vehicle. If it functions properly, the problem is
outside the transmission.
If transmission problem remains, disassemble
transmission and inspect all gear dogs for wear
(rounding), or damage. Inspect all bearings, circlips,
thrust washers and shafts for wear.
