1106 Code
So I got this code....
1106 - AT 4th Gear Signal Fault
It's weird cause it worked ok and the OD light never blinked before. I got this code before a transmission swap. Now that I had the swap, the OD light blinks upon start-up. I think it had something to do with the CPS that was bad causeing hard starts. But the light now blinks upon start and it seems to jerk a bit when engaging or disengaging the OD. When i was changing my rad one of the hoses leading ito the rad from the tranny slipped off and tranny fluid went everywhere. It stalled and never started again untill I cleaned my CPS (POS). Just so you know
Anyway, any ideas what the problem may be? Is there a sensor which I can get at that sends the signal so I can have a look?

I read somewhere that the problem could be the MAF
I got this code about 4 years back, and 4th gear was definatly slipping. I had the tranny replaced and all was well. 1 year ago, I got this code again. I thought oh crap - another 3000 dollars, but couldn't find anything wrong. The was no slipping at all. I tried doing what provoked it before - driving up a fairly steep hill on the highway at 70mph. No problems. I did the throttlebody/MAF cleaning thing and reset the light, and it stayed off for 6 months. Now its back on. there's still no slipping in 4th at all.
About the OD light - it's blinking because it's giving you another code. Get the long/short sequence too

yeah, but the OD works....I have a new MAF. I'll pop it in when i buy a new KS and put that in too
I don't mean to say that the OD is broken - it's that the auto transmission can throw it's own codes by blinking the OD light in the same way that the ECU blinks the check engine light.
