pamike Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 lately my shifter has started to not return to center. i can push it to the left or right and it will stay there and not spring back to the center. if i wait a minute i can hear a click and then when i push it to the left or right it has some resistance to it like it's going to spring back but doesn't. it makes it harder to find 3rd and 4th gear and it's really starting to bug me. what would cause this?

pamike Posted August 8, 2010 Author Share Posted August 8, 2010 i have a little more to add to this. i messed around with the shifter while the truck was cold and it was fine. it didn't spring back only after driving it for a while when the truck was warmed up. the fluid is good, i changed it about a month ago.

JeepcoMJ Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 the detente's on the side of the shifter that return it to center probably went bad. they're easy to replace and don't require disassembly of the trans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
