Transmission Help!

[sparkywilson]

I was driving down the street the other day and all of sudden my bronco ****** forward like something was wrong in the tranny. So pull over and it does it again. I look under the truck and all is good. So i go to pull out again and the vehicle will not drive in any gear. and i mean any. Also now it wont engage into 4 wheel drive or the lite does not come on.

I have no idea what to do so maybe you guys could give me some info on where to start.

Info

92

351 W

E40D

I was also thinking of changing the fluid, think that would help.

yo Sparky!

I assume the eng is still running;

so, is the E4OD Overdrive Cancel Light blinking or the Check Engine Light CEL on?

If so, Pull codes... DIY or get it scanned.

If either CEL or the E4OD Overdrive Cancel Light is blinking my pure wa guess is;

Check speed sensor - check T.P.S.

more on these if the Codes come up for either/both

or, even tho it applies to 96's;

TSB 97-24-23

Thx alot for the info that was very helpful.

But no trouble codes where set at all. and all the lights are out.

I dont think its an electrical thing, i think it is a broken transfer case because it will not even go into 4x4 :wacko:

ok Sparky,

From what you wrote, it is a BW 1356 Electric Xfer Case?

Some info by our pal, Ric;"OK, so we're all aware that the electric shift BW1356 setup sucks. A common problem seems to be that the travel stop breaks when it returns to 2WD, causing it to move just out of range so that it won't engage 4WD again. I've fixed mine twice so far, and I took some pics today when I did it.When you pull the motor from the transfer case, here's what you'll see: read more

this lap top Im using today on an away game is shuttin' down a lot...will post more later if I can fix it

ensure that it has enough lubricant

or you have a broken t-case chain

Ok so you guys think it may be a bad motor of some such. That has prevented it from returning to any gear and is sitting in a sort of a neutral.

Should i look into replacing the motor or what.

Right now i am gonna go change the transfer case oil. Any one have any idea how many quarts it takes to fill it all the way up.

yo!

I dunno about the Xfer case chain for sure Sparky. As routine prevent. maint, it is prob time for you to change the fluid - 2 Quarts in my 96's BW 1356, should be = same as your year (92?) It uses Mercon Auto Tranny Fluid.

btw; here is some info from my 96's Owners guide;

"...When the transfer case is in the N (Neutral) position, the engine and transmission are disconnected from the rest of the driveline. Therefore, the vehicle is free to roll even if the automatic transmission is in P (Park) or the manual transmission is in gear..."

So, get some pals and see if the Xfer case is Stuck in Neutral by pushing or pulling da bronco a yards....be careful of tail lights/headlight areas w/hands

and some info by Ryan M:

"...The Electronic Shift Control Module is powered at all times through Circuit Breaker 12 of the Fuse Panel to retain its memory capability. Fuse 18 provides power for the switches and the Electric Shift Motor when the Ignition Switch is in RUN. Fuse 10 provides power for nighttime illumination of the Electronic Shift Control Switch.

When the Electronic Shift Control Switch is placed in the 4x4 or LO position, the Electronic Shift Control Module analyzes information from the Shift Position Sensors to determine their current positions. The Module also analyzes information inputs from the Transfer Case Speed Sensor and the MLP Sensor or Park/Neutral Position Switch. The Electronic Shift Control Module then activates the Transfer Case Motor to produce the desired shift, and the 4x4 Indicator lights up...":

ck your fuse for da heckuva it; maybe a diff # than 18
