On October '13 the ATX was repaired.
I did not enough happy after the fix... but I preferred to have using the car.

Most of 2014 I had stopped my Cont due to hydraulic pump damaged.
due to I bought another vehicle I did not have money for attending my Cont.
I paid the price for this (read my second post in my presentation if interested)

Well:
I should to say firstly that the O/D light was blinking and the tranny jerked each time I move the lever to each position ( P, R, N, D, 1, 2), but after reading a post here I noticed that the TR Sensor was unplugged!
I don't know why!

Well I plugged the connector to the TR sensor and there is no more jerks and the O/D light is off.
Good!

But I realised that the ATX does not make shifts being in D velocity.
I hope I being clear.
It is not easy for me to translate spanish mechanical terms to english jeje

I mean, all shifts enter perfectly P, R, N, D, 2, 1.
But when I drive I notice that it does not shift the velocity. It remains in "first velocity"
It reaches 2000 RPM but there is not shift to next velocity.

Besides that, the speedometer is not working.

I've tried to accelerate more but it still in first velocity and I notice the engine is forced =/


Is there a relation between the speedometer malfunction and the situation of no shifts??

Thanks and saludos!
