overdrive light blinking a/t

[guillermo corro]

hey zup,, i was trying to find what´s happening to my car cause yesterday was a very rainy day and my car just got wet, veery wet, and after i moved the car from the place that i was parked the car wouldn´t shift well.. it shift from 1 to 2nd until 4500rpm,, that´s very high,, i just went to my house and parked the car, next day i had hoped that the water just gone but when i turned on the car, the overdrive light was blinking, and when i drove the car the same, the car just shift to 2nd until 4500rpm, i checked the ecu codes but i lost the codes, i just remember the 84 12,something etc,, there were a lot of codes, but i just reset the ecu hoping to solve the problem but i just lost the codes cause the ecu cleared the memory and the check engine never came on again but the car still fails, the only signal that i have is the overdrive light blinking 16 times then goes off and the problem comes, i read the factory service manual that i got but it doesn´t have the automatic tranny section,, could anyone help me,,, what´s that blinking mean?,, where can i find a fsm with auto tranny service??,, thanks a lot,, tomorrow morning i´ll check if the car shift to 3rd,,, thanks,,,o i forgot my car is a 240 95 KA of course auto training

Search for "FSM" on the forums, it's a PDF file and it should have the Auto Tranny listed. My light blinks like that if I have been pushing hard, could be the inducer switch. Good luck searching.

It should blink once long then do 10 self-diagnosis blinks. one of those will be longer than the others. Tell me wich one and I can look up the error. The TCU does send Error codes to the ECM and you should have wrote down the codes but, to late now.

If it really is doing it 16 times then we'll have to force it into SD mode. let me know cause it's a 16 step process.

well first thanks for your help,, and well, this morning iwas driving to the school and at the first the same, the car didn't shift well, but once i need to force the car to go to third, and the tranny warm up, i think so,, the shift's were really smooth, like normal, and i go to school in a normal car, i was very happy cause i taught that maybe the water was gone, but after classes when i returned here to work, whe the tranny was cold, i had the same problem, some blocks after i turn on the car i guess that when the tranny warm up, again the shifts were very smooth, about the blinking, yes, it blink onces longer than the other ones, ,, i start the car and then the light blink once and a very long time, after a while,, maybe 5 sec, start to blink 16 times, i need to check carrefully if any otherone is longer, i'll check that as soon as i leave the work,, just to clear my bad grammar, the light blink the first time for 5 sec maybe and after that it keeps blinking 16 times, i'll check if there is any longer one,,

and about the fsm, i already have it, i downloadit from this site, but it dosn't have the auto Gbox section,, :squint:

well thanks a lot,,, :boink:

Ok,, well with this manual i have a lot of things to do,,

let me check what i can, and then i'll reply,, cause this morning the check engine light comes and i get: 34-knock sensor 72-tw cat systm and 126-thorttle position sensor, but well after that i reset again the ecu, and drove the car some blocks and then both lights are gone, the overdrive light and check engine, and the car seems to be shifting ok, i'll test it again in some hours when the oils been cooler than right now,,, so far,, thanks a lot,,,, :bigok:
