spoke too soon

[flatlander]

It seems like it never ends.

This morning (5:30 am) on my way to Monticello, IN to fish, which I haven't done in ten years, I lose my transmission. Then, the tow truck driver backs into the excursion in my driveway dropping it off.

Here's the symptoms. I have no forward or reverse gears. It's basically in neutral all the time. Oh, park works. There was no slippage ever, no overheating, shifted fine. All of a sudden cruising at 60, the engine revs up and I have nothing.

Torque converter?

 

[Exekiel69]

Did the engine got any louder?

 

[NapaBavarian]

Have you checked fluid level?

 

[flatlander]

Engine runs fine, didn't get louder. Fluid level is right where it should be.

 

[Mr_Roboto]

Probably the torque converter or the front pump. If it were something minor, you would probably still either have forward or reverse in at least one range. Even with no electrical connections, E4OD's have 2nd and reverse.

I very rarely say this, but it sounds like you are going to need a replacement trans and converter.

Was there any odd sounds? Mine did the same thing except with a loud bang. It was the center support had sheared off.

 

[flatlander]

No loud sounds. It was fine, then nothing.

 

[highest_vision]

Have you pulled the pan? If fluid level and color is ok, filter is ok, and pan looks ok (no more metal than to be expected) you probably blew a seal that holds line pressure. Maybe drop the valve body and inspect.
Good Luck

Ive seen this happen 2 times with c6s on both the input broke. both were diesels

 

[Greenbeast6.9]

when my c-6 went out it was the clutch packs that would not hold pressure, like the o rings. When it happened there was no sound,just the engine revving.
