1992 Accord 70,000 miles tranny indicator light on dash will show Park AND Drive 4 at startup. shifting to drive 4 will shut off park light BUT car will attempt to drive off in overdrive. I must SHIFT to 1st manually BUT drive 4 AND drive1 lights will illuminate and car will begin in 1st. I must then Manually shift gears for a few minutes until drive 4 light goes out and only 1 gear indicator light is on. This usually takes a few min after warmup. Tran ny fluid may be original but very clean. I will replace fluid w/Honda fluid and install a new filter. Is this a solenoid problem?? There are 4 solenoids bolted to the side of the tranny. Please Help. thanks Bob

 

From what the repair manual sayes. If the D4 indicator stayes lit continuously the transmission computer is malfuctioning. $450 for a new one, good luck.

 

first off you cannot replace the filter ,,well unless you tear the tranny all apart . secondly is there a code??? those solenoids are the shift and the lock up solenoids and they usually throw a code if faulty
