#8 of 12 2000 b3000 transmission problem by jclark5 Sep 17, 2008 (2:25 pm)
i have a 2000 mazda b3000 with 100000 miles on it. last week it starting shifting into second gear really hard, and when it shifts into overdrive the overdrive off light on the dash starts flashing. if you turn the truck off and restart it the light no longer flashes. any ideas anyone Replies to this message: tanker41 (Dec 06, 2008 9:53 am) jclark5 (Dec 06, 2008 12:29 pm) tanker41 (Dec 12, 2008 8:38 pm)
#9 of 12 1995 b2300 stalling/rev limt by rceron Sep 23, 2008 (6:41 am)
I have a 1995 b2300 that when the rpm reach around 3300-3500 it stalls wheather it is in any gear or in neutral, like it where hinting the rev limiter. i can not be sure of the rpms because the truck does not have an RPM gauge. but i know it is not hitting the rev limiter because it will do the same if 5th gear and the speed of the truck goes below 50 or 4th gear and goes below 40 and so on. I thought it was the speed sensor but i changed it and no change, I believe it is an electrical problem but have no idea where to start. anyone seen this before?

Replying to: jclark5 (Sep 17, 2008 2:25 pm) Sorry, I don't have the solution. I am hoping that you have found out what was wrong. My 2001 B300 with 123,000 miles on it just developed the same problem today. Any info you have would be great.

Replying to: tanker41 (Dec 06, 2008 9:53 am) i still do not have my transmission fixed. i changed the fluid and the filter and it did not help at all. I also checked my u joints and they are fine. over on the ford ranger forum there are many people who have the same problem with there transmisson. one said they had it serviced and the dealer could not find anything. im going to take mine to a shop to see if they can find anything. if you find out anything about yours let me know. it must be a simple problem because i still drive mine 75 miles a day with no problems other than the light flashing and the hard shift from first to second Replies to this message: tanker41 (Dec 12, 2008 8:38 pm)

Replying to: jclark5 (Dec 06, 2008 12:29 pm) I do not have good news for you! I took my truck to a very highly recommended trans shop that we have never heard anything negative about . The diagnosis on the 2001 Madza B300 was that the servo was melted and that meant the transmission needed rebuilt. They rebuilt it and put in a new converter at the cost of $1391.00 . Good news is that the truck is running like brand new.The tech said that it had a ford transmission and that when they built the rangers and mazda trucks that they put the exhaust too close to the transmission and that it heats up and over time, melts the servo. He sees it all the time. Hope this info is helpful to you.
