Kickdown Relay Removal

Featured Replies

In case I have to do it, is it safe to remove the kickdown relay on an 87 auto trans with out draining the tranny fluid?

NO, it is not safe.

 

I happen to have a couple auto trannies lying around. I just took the kickdown relay out of one, and was presented with a gush of ATF.

 

 

When you tested it, did you manually hit the button under the dash, or just try pressing the gas pedal?

 

You can test it where it is by jumping 12v to the connector going to it.
