#90 of 235 Why would my 2002 Sebring suddenly stop shifting??? by paisano0724 Jan 25, 2007 (2:12 pm)
The other morning while I was driving to work I was going around 40mph when suddenly my 2002 Chrysler Sebring Convertible died. When I came to a stop I was able to start the car again. The engine sounded OK and I didnt find anything fluids under the car. When I attempted to drive the car again it wouldnt shift out of 1st gear. It is an automatic. The speedometer stopped working and the digital shift display (PRND23) has all the squares are lit up. I recently had to have the starter fuse replaced and I know the mechanic checked the electrical wiring. I have replaced all the fuses just in case including the PCM/ASD fuse as well as the ASD relay. Does anyone know what has happened. I dont have the $$$ to have a shop look at it since I just spent $136 to have a .50 cent fuse replaced last week. Please help.
#91 of 235 How hard is it to change the speed sensor in a 2002 Sebring?? by paisano0724 Jan 31, 2007 (6:42 pm)
I dont have the $$$ to bring it to a shop and have them fix it. How hard is it to locate and get to the transmission to change the speed sensor? I am a car idiot and need as much help as possible. Besides how hard can it be to change a sensor? Replies to this message: ghingus (Nov 20, 2007 1:04 pm)

Replying to: kczyblnd41 (Jan 26, 2007 8:32 pm) I also have a 2002 sebring with 82,000 mile and have been experiancing the SAME ISSUES! My car consistently jerks back and forth when I'm coming to a stop or slowing down. It then started not going from reverse to drive. I noticed it was leaking a red fluid and took it in. Fluid was low. They reconnected a hose that had come loose from the transmission. They also did a diagnostic test on the tranny and said everything was fine. About 2wks later I took the car back in because it still was leaking. They examined it further and determined there is a small leak in the Selnoid Pak in the transmission and I need to take it an expert for replacment. My dilemma is after speaking with a few mechanics and asking if having this part replaced would correct my problems, they say possible unless there are other things going on with the transmission. Well, that does not help. One mechanic told me to fill up the fluid and if that corrects the problem then it is the selnoid, if not, then there is more going on there. From what I've heard, Chrysler Sebrings are notorouis for transmission problems. Wish I would have know that b4. (also have a problem with the air blower, won't work on speeds 1-3, only 4. There seems to be a lot of people with that issue also. The problems this car has seems to be wide speard!!)

#94 of 235 Re: 2001 LXi Coupe Transmission noise on startup [peleton] by mgilmo1969 Feb 08, 2007 (5:59 pm)
Replying to: peleton (Jan 25, 2007 7:21 am) I have a similar noise takes about ten minutes to go away. thought it was coming from one of the catcons sounded like the front one is rattling inside. dealer looked at it but could not really hear the day it was there. outside air temp needs to be below 25ish over night to hear it long enough. dealer forman said by the description he thought it was a catcon cuz its not uncommon. anybody else have this? 50k miles Replies to this message: merober26 (Feb 19, 2007 11:00 am)

Replying to: mgilmo1969 (Feb 08, 2007 5:59 pm) I have the same noise at startup on cold days, although it sounds like a secondary gear, or alternator under load type noise. Eventually it does go away when the car warms up. I've heard its a common noise. Does anyone think that its some sort of motor or selonoid kicking in until the car's PCM goes into closed loop mode? It does seem like it could be transmission related, because it does go away in neutral. I just had a new rebuilt tranny put in, and the noise is the same as before it was put in.

Replying to: mitchg00 (Jun 16, 2006 5:28 pm) had same problems. car jerks when downshifting around 30mph..had solenoid replaced, trans cooler replaced etc...nothing worked. we took it back and they reset all the modules, that corrected the hard downshift but now the transmission sqweals like a jet engine upon acceleration ...so go figure.   Sebrings are pieces of $hit......
#98 of 235 Seibring Downshifting Problems by dh36 Mar 13, 2007 (7:11 am)
So is resetting of the modules the fix for the downshifting problems on the Seibrings?   I need to get mine fixed as well. Replies to this message: flashc5 (Mar 19, 2007 3:13 am) djdrummernick (Nov 17, 2007 5:30 pm)
#99 of 235 Re: Seibring Downshifting Problems [dh36] by flashc5 Mar 19, 2007 (3:13 am)
Replying to: dh36 (Mar 13, 2007 7:11 am) FIXED!!!!!!   An update on my issue. I have 75k miles on the clock. I had a leak on the hoses that go from the tranny to the transmission cooler. I replaced the hose (and filled it up with fluid) but then found that the transmission shifted really rough on the down shift around 25mph   I dropped the transmission pan and replaced the filter, gasket and fluid.   The problem is COMPLETELY gone. I would highly recommend changing your fluid BEFORE you get the whole transmission replaced like alot of people have.   This problem is very strange and does not cause any DTC errors. I have taken it to several transmission shops and ALL of them said that I needed a transmission rebuild. Please try replacing the fluid before you spend big bucks.
