Thank you very much for the great feedback.

Great job , I’m going thru the exact same thing

what codes were you seeing?

@@shkuchiluchianno3326. Did you find out what the problem is?

Fantastic! I really appreciate this feedback .

Love this comment , I am glad this could help someone else . Hope everyone continues to share this information and help others. Thank you.

Hope this fixes yours also , thank you for watching.

Great to hear , thank you for the feedback.

Glad it was helpful , and thank you for the terrific feedback.

Happy to help

220 f is getting on the max end , I would really like to see it around 210. Now towing it would be normal to increase , but not empty. You might consider adding an additional external oil cooler. Thanks for the question.

Other than throw a code , you should be able to check the outlet line with the vehicle up to operating temperature. It should be warm or same as the inlet. The only issue would be if it fails shut and is not allowing coolant to flow , this could overheat the transmission. This could also be caused by a connector or wire issue. Thanks for your feedback.

I would check there first for sure , those wire connectors can easily get mixed up also . As long as the tran temp is good and the fluid level is good. Appreciate the question.

I would get the codes read and go from there. Most parts stores will read them for free and give you a print out. Thank you for the feedback.

I would check the fan , if it isn't working the transmission could be getting hot and throwing the fault. Other than that have it scanned for codes , it could be a bypass valve fault. Hope this helps.

@@s33therfan yeah fan should be checked. I hoped a trans fluid change would help since it was junk but the noise the trans was making was horrible. I did have codes when I first looked at it P0219 P0324 P2703 P2704. It’s going to the shop Monday. 🙁

I would not drive it at all , until the problem can be pin pointed. It could be the bypass valve not working and this could overheat the transmission. It could be low on transmission fluid , low on coolant etc. A good scan tool can monitor the tran temperature and coolant temp and read codes . I would recommend not driving it until the issue is resolved. Thank you for the feedback.

It is a very good possibility . I would check the codes. I know it will get very hot fast if that valve is stuck closed. Thanks for the feedback.

@@s33therfan Around what temp would the trans be considered to be overheating ??

All three of my lines going into the valve at the front, which is B are all cold and even when the rest of the hoses from the radiator are hot, they remain cold all the way to valve. Anybody have any suggestions? Also, my transmission is running poorly.

I believe it may if the fluid was low. I would perform a drain fill and see if it goes away. Thanks for the feedback

I would have the codes checked , check transmission fluid and go from there. Thanks for the feedback

You can't check the trans fluid on 2916

Check the transmission fluid first. Thanks for the feedback.

I would start by checking the transmission fluid and then check for other possible codes. Thanks for the feedback.

I had done some research and came across a few post about transmission faults. Several had great running transmissions with no issues. Could not help but wonder if these bypass valves may have been related to theirs. Hopefully this can help someone else out as there is not a lot of information about these bypass valves.

Basically it just had the servicr transmission fault , on the display at start up. The transmission fluid was also running hotter than normal. Thanks for the feedback.

I was getting a P26AC error for solenoid B. It seems to be a code that's specific to Ford Escapes and I had to use ForScan to get the error because my generic OBD software didn't find it. It looks like the error code for solenoid A is P2681, but I can't confirm that 100%.

I would have the codes checked and go from there. Definitely try to minimize driving it and get it diagnosed. Hopefully it is something simple.

Many recommend with newer transmissions , changing the fluid every 30k. Now I would like to see studies done on this to confirm . I would also say this , that when you factor the price of transmission fluid with the price of a transmission replacement, it is better to change the fluid often. Another note , the filters on many are not accessible , without a rebuild , all the more importance of keeping clean fluid. Thank you for your question.

@@s33therfan yeah... You are definitely right, its better to keep fluid clean. As i got it right Mercon LV would be the most suitable?

Yes , the mercon lv full synthetic is an excellent product.

This is the Dorman if you would like the oem the part number will be in the description. Hope this helps. amzn.to/3vKo8z2

My 2014 Ford escape is doing exactly what you described did you find a way to fix this issue any help would be amazing?

I'm struggling with this issue myself too - I'm getting codes P0741 and P1744, and the engine light came on after I got several 'Transmission Failure: Service Now' alarms coming on one after another. I am hoping that I can find a transmission specialist who will replace the Torque Converter Clutch Solenoid only, which I'm hoping can be done without pulling the transmission out (so labour cost shouldn't be too high). What solution did you find?

Some one said it cost 1600 cad for the with cultch part with labour in Ontario

@@deblacquiere any update? im having the same issue.

That is terrific , thank you for taking the time to share and thanks for watching.

I would start with checking the tran temp , tran fluid level , coolant level. Then move on to the bypass valves. It will most likely be the valve in front of the radiator. Lastly if those all check out , there may be an issue developing with the transmission itself. Hope this helps.

Thank you for watching.
