hello after you replace the B clutch do you have to reprogram the TCM? And if the B clutch is bad in the beginning, will it not let you reprogram the TCM if you’re putting in a new one?

You don't have to program the tcm for a clutch and fork job, just an adaptive learn. If the B clutch fork is seized, yes it can cause a failure on the adaptive learn

Ya, that’s what I figured. I’m almost tempted just to buy it online and do it myself. Dealer wants 3200 Thank you for your reply. Much appreciate it.

The better thing to replace with aftermarket in your air filter box, is stock everything, except a K&M washable filter....which you can't even see.... 😀

Do you replace both actuators when one is bad because the other one will most likely fail soon?

@BigBensCarsAndCycles 9 ай бұрын

Yes, I do. Thanks for watching!

So it is TCM? My wife's car did this today. But would go forward. Make it home then could back up. But still trouble with the RPM with the jerking. I have a focus same thing, but I can go in reverse. Turns out it was the TCM just double check in here . And remember they extend the warranty on the TCM to 2025 one time fix. Any feedback would be greatly appreciate it.

Slave cylinder came apart. See the follow up If you like

Any ideas

@natiels 9 ай бұрын

So even tho the actuator swap produced the same codes and same response from the vehicle (no reverse) you are convinced this is not a TCM issue because the codes that were thrown indicate mechanical failure? Please post another video after the transmission work to confirm whether or not the slave cylinder was the issue. Thanks for the content!

Yes that's what I think. I will do a follow up video. I have approval to remove the transmission

............Awesome! 👍I needed my windsheild replaced. I have full glass coverage on my insurance, so I got Safelite to come to my house, and replace it. Last week they came with the non-GPS windshield, instead of the correct one, so re-scheduled me for yesterday. Both times, they sent a single tech, instead of two. He broke a few fasteners in both r/l windshield side trims, left crud everywhere under the side trims, and put the windshield on, nearly 3/4" off center. Needless to say, today I'm driving to a Safelite shop, down the street. @@BigBensCarsAndCycles

Just got back from my local Safelite. They are coming back out for a warranty repair, and they are also replacing both side trims. That's another $130 I don't have to spend! Glad I went into our local shop, and showed them all that wasn't correct, or was broken. I wasn't looking forward to buying those trim pieces... 😀@@BigBensCarsAndCycles

Did you try the simple transmission reset combo? I have heard it occasionally fixes that. @@tedfoorjr5867
