After a fun day at Whaddon last week the transmission overheat lamp on the dash came on 10 miles down the road. I stopped to let her cool down as I assumed the cooler had become clogged. After a few trial switch-on's the light was still glowing, therefore I slowly drove th 5 miles or so home.
New Years Eve afternoon I spent a goo 3 hours jet-washing her making sure the cooler was as clean as a whistle....................
Imagine my disappointment when I found that the light was still on!! In a nutshell, I've started her a few times now and the light is on each time AND thats when the engine is stone cold!!
Anyone got any ideas? Strange that it came on during the drive back? Have I dislodged a wire?
Another point of info that may help (and some of you that were at Whaddon may have seen me) but the pin that connects the transfer/diff lever fell out and it kept jumping out of low range. As the pin was lost in the mud we fitted a bolt and a couple of nuts as a temporary measure. It stayed in LOW all day with no problem at all after the quick fix, but on the way home it popped out of High a couple of times. Obviously I need to replace the pin.
Any help would be very much appreciated. :-k
