ill have tio look at the youtube vid at hom,e they blockerd it here whats a tv cable ?

 

Throttle valve ("kickdown") cable.
Controls trans line pressure.

 

i c and is the video showing how to xcheck it ... what am i looking for ?

 

it shows how to adjust it, its a video I made about a year ago for someone on here.
You just push in a button and then push in the cable. After that you rotate the throttle to WOT and youre done.
Dont know if itll fix your problem but its always the first thing I suggest when someones jeep wont downshift, since its easy and free.

 

ahhh ...ill give it a try thanks .... idk what to do im going bazzerk... its slow as can be because i cant step on the gas

 

What kind of fluid did you use?

 

ATF +4 castrol synthetic

 

theres your problem
GET IT OUT

PM inbound.

 

i was having the problem b4 i put the fluid in

 

Read the PM.
Check your TV cable, do what I mentioned in the PM and give us an update.
If its not that, you have some worse problems (maybe new trans time)

 

when you adjust the cable instead of using the throttle body linkage use the gas pedal while holding button this is a common mistake the gas pedal may not open the throttle body the same amount as the pedal will

 

this is the tv cable also called detent cable and kick down cable, hold the button down and have some one push the gas pedal to the floor, the cable will self adjust if needed then release button then let gas pedal up xj does not need to be running during this adjustment procedure.

 

alright i will def give it a try thanks guys
