Symptoms of a Failing Kickdown Cable in Cars

The kickdown cable works for effective communication between the engine and the transmission of your car. When this cable starts to wear out, then you will notice that the transmission is hard to shift, the gear shifts early and fast, and there is slow & late shifting of the transmission. See the mentioned slideshow to know more about the symptoms of a failing kickdown cable in cars.

  1. Symptoms of a Failing Kickdown Cable in Cars

  2. For the smooth running of the car, it is important to have the engine and the transmission work harmoniously.

  3. The kickdown cable is the component which helps in effective communication between the engine and the transmission of your car.

  4. The device helps the engine in relaying information on revolutions per minute to the automatic transmission and informs it to change gears.

  5. The kickdown cable operates in extreme conditions which is why it is one of the most commonly replaced parts in the transmission system of the car.

  6. Here are the following symptoms exhibited by your car when the kickdown cable fails.

  7. The transmission shifts hard

  8. An automatic transmission has multiple parts that are engineered to produce a smooth transition from one gear to another gear.

  9. However, when the shifting of the gears becomes hard enough for you to feel a jolt in the steering wheel, it is a warning sign of the failing kickdown cable.

  10. Moreover, in most cases, this symptom is caused by a lack of transmission fluid pressure, or due to transmission leak or low fluid.

  11. The more jerking and shaking the transmission does on the road, the more damage is caused to the kickdown cable and other transmission components.

  12. The car shifts early and fast

  13. The shift to the higher gear is supposed to be gentle and gradual which allows the flywheel, transmission gears and the drive shaft to gradually change speed together.

  14. However, when the car feels like it is jumping quickly to the next gear, then something is wrong with the kickdown cable.

  15. Moreover, when the car shifts into another gear quickly, then there is a risk of the gears in the transmission to get damaged.

  16. Whenever you experience these symptoms, then contact a technician as soon as possible to avoid any further damage to other engine components.

  17. Slow and late shifting of the transmission

  18. Contrary to the above-discussed symptoms, a slow or late shifting of the transmission will also be an indication that a problem with the kickdown cable exits.

  19. In this circumstance, the kickdown cable will be stretched and will ultimately cause a delay in the shifting process.

  20. This is also a typical issue and can cause damage to other expensive components in your car.

  21. Whenever you notice any of these warning signs, then contact an automotive shop immediately to replace the faulty kickdown cable.
