INTERMITTENT OR COMPLETE LOSS OF REVERSE -THM 125C

LO AND REVERSE CLUTCH - EXPLODED VIEW:




1982 Cimarrons equipped with a THM 125C transaxle may experience an intermittent or complete loss of reverse. This condition may be caused by a separation of the lip seal retainer from the Lo and Reverse clutch piston, resulting in a reduction or loss of apply pressure to the Lo and Reverse clutch.

Close inspection of the piston will be required as the separation may not be easily seen. If this separation condition is encountered, it will be necessary to replace the Lo and Reverse piston (P/N 8643922).
