Replying to: jeddry (May 19, 2009 2:09 pm) I have also replace the power stearing pump. My suggestion to you would be to remove the belt, pull off the pullies one by one and feel with you fingers how easy/hard it is to turn. It should turn fairly easy with no (NO) bumpy feeling at all. a drastic suggestion: check your parts place for returns! you can always take the approach of changing things out till you find the problem!

Ok, I bought a 2000 Chevy Venture 2 weeks ago and it has some problems. When driving it after it warms up for a bit, it tends to stutter/stall, typically under 40 mph. We replaced the crankshaft sensor, not sure which one, A or B, but it was behind the tensioner pulley. Now it it throwing a few codes. One is P0742, Torque Converter Circuit is stuck on, and Two is, P0336, Crank Shaft position sensor A, check range and performance. I m no mechanic by any means, but I do know that if it is the Torque Converter Clutch Switch, the tranny has to be pulled, which I cannot afford to have done. Any ideas on what could be going on? Thanks in advance. Oh, and I forgot to add.... sometimes when you start the van, it immediately dies, and it takes a few times to get it started, and usually once you start it, it idles very rough for the first few minutes.

Replying to: corbyzmom (May 19, 2009 4:11 pm) As for the TCC - if the switch is stuck on, the torque converter is staying locked and is likely causing the stutter & stall under 40 MPH. Unfortunately, it has to be replaced. You can try changing the trans fluid & filter as I've seen that cure a stuck TCC but likely you'll need to have it repaired. They don't have to remove the trans but they have to remove a bunch of stuff to get to it. If you're not above average with tools its best left to a mechanic. |

I have been reading many posts regarding the entertainment system in my now six year old (2003) Chevy Venture Van. We bought the van new and now it is time to replace the dvd player and the remote or get it fixed. It will only play brand new movies and even after repeatedly changing the batteries, the remote no longer works. I spoke to a Chevy dealer who had the hardest time finding out who the manufacturer of the dvd player is. Since he wasn't able to find it even by calling GM (very helpful) I was wondering if anyone out there had this information? Also, does anyone know of a reputable company that will sell me a refurbished dvd player and remote for my 2003 Venutre Van? Thanks, motherhen68
