I put multimeter to battery before I checked anything, always do, it read fine
I don't even know what an oscilloscope is lol
So definitely above my capabilities
Engine was warmed up(I had test drove it again just before looking at tps) and I did have my multimeter grounded to the battery and stuck into the green wire
Tried moving it all the way in both directions and never could get higher than .85, at the spot where it got .85 I put it to WOT and got...
Oh, also any way to check the speed sensor? Or is that just a replace and see if it works kinda thing?
Did also check the MLPS adjustment today and the lines are lined up
Checked the tps a little while ago, couldn't even get .9 volts out of it no matter where I adjusted it to, highest I saw was .85 new one will be here tomorrow
Where exactly is the tcm located?
I put our code reader on it yesterday and got DCT 14 and DCT 67 (sorry forgot to put that in OP)
Ok good to know
I will try to adjust the shift lever sensor and check the throttle sensor tomorrow
I know my dad has never replaced the throttle sensor in his truck drive he got it and he had had it for a good ten years at least so it's probably due for replacement,
He did have that replaced before he bought the transmission
They told him something about reprogramming the sensor with the computer when they put it on(I have no idea who did it or what they were talking about) and after that he still had a shifting problem
ok, my dads truck is a 93 7.3 with the E40D transmission, he has been having some trouble with it not shifting, and after talking to some mechanics he knows he decided to put a brand new torque converter and transmission in. as he works out of town he had me put the new transmission in...
Or can I run the ac on a toggle switch and just use the panel in the cab I already have?
Toggle is kinda seeming like my best option at the moment, but I don't really understand how the wiring works between the compressor and the pressure switch
So I got to looking at this today and I noticed that the truck the ac come from the the switch for panel floor defrost etc is vacuum controlled, and in my truck that's a push pull cable controlling it
So to change to the ac do I have to somehow convert my truck to use vacuum to switch that?
oh i didnt know that rockauto is a sponsor of this site
ill be buying locally tho for time reasons
so its this that i need? http://www.autozone.com/cooling-heating-and-climate-control/a-c-accumulator/everco-a-c-accumulator/844118_0_0_2398/?checkfit=true
or this...
On the vacuuming the system thing I am curious
In my old Toyota one of the ac lines had a big hole in it, so I patched it with a combination of rescue tape and jb weld and recharged it, and it worked, did I get monstrously lucky? Was it super dangerous doing that?
Just curious, can't say...
Where do I get all of that stuff?
Is it absolutely necessary to do that?
My dad didn't change any of that out on the Lincoln, just used the cheapo retrofit kit on it and it works fine, or is that bad to do?
