in my 89 raider v6 the at temp warning light is on??? But it appears to be elictrical due to the fact that its on when i start the vehicle up its on. I was wondering if any of you have had the same problem with your monty's? It seems to drive fine but one day last week it decided to turn off after some hard acceleration to get back up to the speed limit. the tach went nuts and then it turned off, but unlike a normal problem all off the electrical turned off also. Where is the temp sensor located at on the trany, and i was going through the wiring diargram and i though i saw a transmission control unit, such like a ecu, but wasnt sure. Could that be the cause, ive been hunting down all electrical wires that arnt attached to anything, but the light still exists. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks


RIP raider

Likely to be your AT Temp sending unit which is on the exhaust side of the tranny if I remember correctly.

If it's currently wet where you are or if you've driven through some water recently then it's likely that the cover/boot simply has a crack in it and water is making you get the at temp light. At least that's what was going on w/ mine.
