What are the forward gears on a car?
Second and third gears would be the only forward gears that function. If shift solenoid B (SSB) is not turning on, the solenoid chart shows that the transmission would have fourth gear starts, and manual second and third gears at about 30mph.
What does delayed engagement mean in auto transmission?
Delayed Engagement. You hop into your car, turn the ignition key, shift to ‘Drive’ or ‘Reverse’, and there is a seemingly long delay before the transmission engages. Known as delayed engagement, it is one of the most common symptoms of problems with any automatic transmission.
Why is the forward sprag not working on my car?
If there is now movement, the forward sprag is bad because the overrunning clutch holds the sprag, but if it still does not move then it is the forward clutch causing the concern. If I am missing second and fourth gears but all other gears are ok, the cause points to the 2-4 band not applying.
Why are the solenoids on and off in first gear?
Remember that in first gear both shift solenoids are on and in third gear, both are off. That would indicate that the solenoids are working ok and point to a friction element, and as the chart shows, the common element applied in second and fourth gears is the 2-4 band.
How do you scan a gears 6T40 / 45 transmission?
Remove the control solenoid assembly from the transmission. Install tool DT 48616 onto the control solenoid assembly (5 Nm / 44 lb-in). Apply regulated shop air (90–100 PSI) to the tool. Connect your scan tool to the control solenoid assembly using cable DT48616-10. Command the solenoid on and off.

What should I do if my gearshift is not working?
3. Gearshift Linkage Mis-adjusted. 3. Adjust linkage and repair linkage if worn or damaged. 4. Torque Converter Drain Back (Oil drains from torque converter into transmission sump). 4. If vehicle moves normally after 5 seconds after shifting into gear, no repair is necessary.
Where is the negative meter lead on a Ford 5R110W?
If approximately 5 volts is seen then verify the external sensor ground circuit as follows. Leave the positive meter lead at terminal 18 where approximately 5 volts was previously seen. Remove the negative meter lead from the known good ground and place the negative meter lead to terminal 22 in the vehicle harness connector.
