Probably not faulty.Originally Posted by AdrianS
The switch has about 10 degrees of rotation on it when mounted on the side of the box, and if it's out too far you can get a confused signal. The xyz switch outputs a grey code from memory, so only 1 signal at a time should change, in between fully in one state or another it creates an invalid code so the transmission controller knows that it is intermediate.

See the image I've attached. But if you go too far into 3 from D then you may end up with a mixed signal.
It's probably a really tiny adjustment - I think I posted a while back that probably the best way to do it is to put into Neutral with ignition on and then rotate the switch until it says R, note that position and then rotate it until it says D and mark that position. The best position should then be in the middle to read off N. It then aligns all of the switch contacts.
It may also be that perhaps the cable needs loosening and then retighten, it might just be holding the switch off a 'click', I can't remember if the switch is smooth rotary or notchy.
In any case, it's only a 5 min job - I think the transmission controller and BCU like to actually know the gear though.

SupporterShould have gone to that priest on the way out the Kimberley, the exhaust broke off at the flange on the right hand manifold 70km out of Kununurra😂😂😂😂! I'm just wondering where and how I could have run over an entire Chineese village and a flock of Albatrosses!!

V8? That happened to me too on our first D2. D1 don't fit, wrong alignment, so you will need a D2 downpipe to fix or someone to weld it.
Arse.

SupporterNo I was towed in to there 4 weeks ago Saturday don't tell me there's another from there the region must be cursed for D2's!🤣🤣🤣 I'm now in Katherine one of the maintainence guys at the park is a mechanic and is going to weld the pipe up for me, next I have to look at the caravan wheel repaired in Kununurra looks like they didn't ajust the electric brakes on it and they are jamming on.😭

SupporterWell, whatever goes wrong for you when you get to Darwin I'll see if I can help
Are you intending to include Victoria in your grand loop back to WA? If yes, then suggest you avoid the Grampians, as I believe they have a Halls Gap.

SupporterThanks found a mechanic here in the caravan park he helped me reweld the exhaust flange back on to the pipe turns out it's been rebuilt and is a bit of a bodge job anyway. The mounting brackets have been removed that's what caused the failure, mismatching mufflers replacing the catylitic converters and no rear O2 sensors😡.Well, whatever goes wrong for you when you get to Darwin I'll see if I can help

SupporterLucky they are still there pedro but I can't fathom why the bodge up? Was the previous owner trying to improve somthing to do with fitting the 4.6l or just doing it on the cheap?
