90 EX (AT)

Driving last night I got stuck in traffic at 1am on the freeway (bumper to bumper, stop and go driving). Finally when we get going, about 10 min later, the 'green S' starts flashing.

I only using the sport/over drive when doing 55+. Should I use at other times?

Why was it constantly flashing? The only way it would quit, is when I turn off the car, and start it up again.

I thought one time issue maybe.....no. It did it again today.

 

TTT

...for the early morning crew.

Any ideas?

 

reset the tcu...


pull battery cables off battery for ~10 minutes..

see if the problem returns

 

My guess would be vss....are you throwing any cel's?

 

That flashing is like a CEL for your transmission. I do not remember how to pull tranny codes. Search for how to do that and see what code you have.

I look into that tonite. Cause it just kept flashing like a turn signal being left on.

 

Alright let me ask this: Are you having any drivability issues when the S light is flashing? I remember when my VSS went out the only thing that went out intermitantly was my speedo and then my S light started flashing.

I tried searching for a thread on how to pull AT codes but came up short . I am betting it's either a tranny solenoid or your vss.

 

its definatly for the tranny.. how does the car drive.. normally when that somes on u have a big problem

 

I haven't even had time to disconnect to battery for 10 minutes I've been so busy, so I'm driving my 92 Accord at the moment.

But I did drive my 90 to work today. No flashing light either. Driving is fine. Steering is tight, but has always been that way.

I think I can start to hear the knock for axles. Heard this same noise when mine started to go out in my 92. Any affect on the tranny?

 

d16 dont disconnect battery to clear code underhood fuse box pull back up fuse for 15 seconds that will clear your computer
