Can't find the build thread here again...
This car gets love for like 2 days a year.
Trans in it is a bit builts uppers. 300m input and output shaft, bunch of other upgrade parts in it. Has only 2nd and 3rd and TCC apply.
Tonight I tried to so some diagnostic. Computer thinks it's commanding 1st gear. DMM reveals 20 ohms resistance across the 1-2 shift solenoid, same for the 2-3 solenoid. It appears that the PCM is indeed grounding the control wire for the 1-2 solenoid, the DMM diode test flips between open and closed on the 1-2 wire that the PCM grounds. This makes me think the issue is inside the trans, but since I don't have the bonded spacer plate that GTPpower is having an issue with, looks like the remaining known culprits are physical issues (clog or leak) in the solenoid or sticking feed limit valve.
The PCM is throwing a P1676 (bitch code) and P1860 but TCC seems to be working... This car is completely 1998 harness swapped at this point. I figured that for $50 there's no reason not to replace both shift solenoids and TCC solenoid since it looks like the trans has to come out again. Not sure what else could be a culprit? Don't really want to pull it seven times to figure it out .
