hi there and thanks for any replies.. well after a bad weekend and a long slow drive in failsafe mode.i have now changed the stepper motor on the advice of the people who reconed my gearbox. it still goes into trans failsafe mode after driving a few miles!! im at a loss to what it could be im going to take the car to the gearbox people in the morning but i would like an idea of what it could be so i can think of what to fire back at the guys who reconed my box i did tell them last month that the box didnt like going back down into fist as i stopped at the junction it jerked a little going down the first as i stopped. then one day the jerking stopped and the trans fail safe started coming on. now i took it to the gearbox people and they put it on the diagnostic machine and said it needs a stepper motor and they also said they had reset the valve body in the gearbox so. here i am its still going into failsafe? i chaged the stepper motor could the problem still be the stepper cause it is a reconed motor could the motor be no good im at a loss. could the problem be the trasfur box maybe the chain needs changing cause its streched any advice would be a help thanks phil
