Hi All'
I have just purchased a MX83 Cressida with a 1jz conversion out of a jzx81 and am having an issue with the Auto transmission only selecting 1st and Reverse.
When the conversion was first done it had a manual box in it and was running fine on the auto ecu, once the previous owner blew the box he changed it back to auto (auto was taken out of another cressida that previous owner had driven and he said it was driving fine) and since it has changed back to auto it will only select 1st and Reverse.
I am sure it will be something electrical but after looking around on the forums I just cant pin point what exactly is the issue. I have not tried another ecu as yet. Thinking maybe the Auto ecu was modified to run the Manual box and now that its back to running and auto again that could be the issue.
I am planning to take it to an auto electrician in the next few days to look into it.
Any advice or ideas as what it could be would be appreciated!!!!
