Good tip, Tim! Presumably this is a recurring problem because of marked overfilling.

Thank you for making this video. I have this same problem in my 02 Ram Van 3500. I looked up part number you provided, as I like to use Mopar, and found out part for my trans has been discontinued - 5604 5489 AA (along with seemingly everything else related to my van). How do you feel about NAPA Echlin sensors?

Hello l saw your video and l think you can help me out. I have a RAM 6.7 2009 old style 2008, I get a code of (p21 21 throttle/pedal position sensor/ switch circut Range/performance). Thr truck runs good when the code doesnt show up, which would happen some days and other days it would show the code and the truck would start acting up. Sometimes the transmission wont let me put it to do manual drive and it stops on Drive, and sometimes when I put it in reverse or drive it feels like the truck tumbles a lot. Do you think its because of the sensor from the video? I would appreciate your help. Greetings from Austin, Tx

I’m confused the p2121 code is the tps or accelerator pedal position sensor voltage low why would that range sensor cause that to happen? Unless it forced the truck to go into limp mode and makes the truck accelerate slow

@ThecardoctorTV
@ThecardoctorTV 6 жыл бұрын
Yes, since the sensor has a spring loaded plunger and it’s most extended when in 1st gear it’s easier to install. I neglected to say why for some reason. This video was an editing nightmare that started with the removal of some choice expletives following the transmission fluid bath. Hehe

Everything lights up when I turn key but nothing happens at all no noise. Car worked fine just took down dash to install a remote start, seen I needed another plug and put dash back up and now nothing, any help from anyone is appreciated
