TEST TWO A-SELECTOR IN OD (Fourth Gear)

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Dodge Dakota. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: This test checks the underdrive clutch hydraulic circuit as well as the shift schedule.
  1. Attach gauge to the underdrive clutch tap.
  2. Move selector lever to the OD position.
  3. Allow wheels to rotate freely and increase throttle opening to achieve an indicated speed of 40 mph.
  4. Underdrive clutch pressure should read below 5 psi. If not, than either the solenoid assembly or controller is at fault.
