possibly a solonoid hanging up. could of got gunked up while the car sat. Try draining the trans and refilling it with fresh fluid. It would be a good idea to replace or clean the filter screen as well.

your gonna have to start checking connectors and grounds. check all your fuses as well make sure none are blown.

Does it feel like your car is in a higher gear when taking off? or does it feel like it is in first[tacs out quickly]?

check the stuff I told you to check,after you check that get to the trans control unit and disconnect it then try to drive it. If now it takes off in third gear that tells you it is likely a input to the control unit rather then a internal trans issue.

Bringing up an old thread.

Which input to control units should I be checking? Where is the trans control unit that I disconnect?

Car spits out a code 14.

89 240sx automatic

Problems noted:

1) Cannot wide open throttle pass around 4-4.5k - car rev limits. Happens in Neutral also.

2) Sometimes, when it is cold and car has been sitting (so cal, so around 50-60 degrees) will be in safe mode - third gear - until warm & I turn the engine off & on again.

THANKS NISTECH!
