Replying to: lmp4 (Mar 29, 2009 9:04 am) It helps if you can summarize the issue since links die and sometimes don't work for people. Replies to this message: lmp4 (Mar 29, 2009 9:34 am) steve_ (Mar 29, 2009 11:46 am)

#526 of 610 I think my car is on it's last leg. by hth04 Apr 01, 2009 (1:49 pm)
Oh my, well I need help because my car has stopped working again. I read some of the other discussions and they pertain to my vehicle. The dealership never knows what wrong. Right now it revs when in neutral (that is how i use to get through stop lights and signs) but when i put it in drive it just dies. Do you have any suggestions on what might be wrong? We have already had alot of work done on it about 4 months ago.(replaced computer, gas tank, and others I can't remember) Replies to this message: lmp4 (Apr 01, 2009 3:32 pm)

Replying to: hth04 (Apr 01, 2009 1:49 pm) Can you indicate what modelyear you are talking about?...reply below is relevant of 1997-2000...ahh OK..your duplicate post said 97... ..you mean it stalls at a red light just like a manual when you would stop without depressing the clutch..??....I suppose it does not happen just when you start with the car initially, but just after you have driven it for a little while...please confirm and add details if my interpretation is incorrect. THis would be a symptom of stuck Torque converter clutch...(TCC). One way to test it is to disconnect the TCC signal so it does not apply . This would mean disconnecting the BLU/BLK wire from the transmission connector (pin 2). If this makes the symptom disappears, then you have a problem within transmission, most probably the TCC solenoid. you can choose to run without TCC for as long as you want, there is no problem other than a slight fuel burn penalty...and the check engine light coming ON. Report findings.

Replying to: andy91 (Mar 16, 2009 1:00 pm) Ok kia check engine light is fixed. It was the computer that had gone bad making the engine misfire on cylinders 2,3,4 periodically. Instead of buying a 695.00 new one I got a salvaged one and it has been running great for the past two weeks.. Thanks for all the help.

Replying to: pmoser (Dec 02, 2008 9:01 am) This same thing just happened on my 99 sportage. Im going to be looking into it tomorrow. My dash lights, marker light, and tail lights are all out. My headlamps, turn signals, and brake lights work fine.
