rstaggs01 Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Have a 93 Accord SE, automatic trans, bought in November 09. After driving for a few days, I noticed that the rpm's seemed to be kinda high at speed (60+ mph). What I found in experimenting is that the overdrive appears to be working bass-ackwards. When I press the accelerator, the rpm's drop - as though the overdrive has kicked in, rather than the passing gear. When I release, the rpm's jump back up by 500 or so. So, that appears to me to be backwards.. rpm's should increase when i hit the accelerator (passing gear) and drop when I release (overdrive kicks in) any thoughts?

Bidderdoo Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 I have one doing the same thing. Did you ever figure out what the issue was? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bidderdoo Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Mine was the Engine Coolant Temp. Sensor. It feeds info to the TCM and ECM. There are four temp. sensors. on these cars one each in the inlet and outlet housings for the fans, and under the distributor you will find two more. The smaller forward one is for the gauge. The aft one is the one you need to change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
