My 95 GLE changes hard from 1st to second. I was just wondering if anyone had pics of where it was located so I can see if it's unplugged. It's really annoying and i'm afraid it's going to damage something. I'm quite sure there wasn't a DR Mod done previously either. Please Help!!

 

double posting FTL!

 

SORRY...my mistake..thought my computer didn't put the 1st one through...but...that still doesn't help my situation...

 

if im correct the drop resistor only limits the maximum rpm that the car can go to. i didnt think it would make shifting hard.

 

well how come unplugging it makes it shift harder...hence the DR Mod

 

No.

Unless you're experiencing extremely harsh shifts on every shift, the drop resistor is most likely fine. After you get some miles on them, the autos tend to give hard shifts from first to second, especially when cold. Change out the fluid if it's due, see if that helps.

 

As to the location, it is the only rectangular shaped item on the LH shock tower, mounted on the front of the tower with a single wiring connector going into it. No picture, I drive a 5spd.

 

thank you

 

ok, i have to get the cv axel seal replaced 1st, then i'll do a flush and replace the fluid.
