Re: Replaced mazda bongo autobox but got no drive help please?

This is good info, thanks Alacrity. Did you (wrightcustomvans) ever get around to fixing this or figuring it out? Looking at new gearboxes here as our van not getting up through the gears, getting no fault codes. There's a thread about it already (https://igmaynard.co.uk/bongo/forum/viewtopic.php?f=...

Re: Bongo topping out at 30mph, no gear up

Thanks cutlass, will try to check the TPS with multimeter this afternoon. EGR has been blanked for last year, no ill effects, but maybe the valve got stuck/coked - I only blanked it just under the valve, so perhaps coke got to it over time. Stopped the sensor working? Wasn't able to get it off to ch...

Re: Bongo topping out at 30mph, no gear up

Further update: Removed EGR blanking plate to see if that wouldn't 'fix' the fault code warning. Might need to reset codes as they may no longer be relevant. Sprayed some carb cleaner into the EGR pipe but couldn't work out how to get the valve itself off, also remembered someone saying it can cause...

Re: Bongo topping out at 30mph, no gear up

OK just got the codes. Was easier than I thought! Thanks, BF forums/factsheets :) 2 codes: 12 and 16, standing for throttle position sensor and the EGR valve position sensor. Bearing in mind these were not flashing the hold light right now, so must have been saved to memory in the past. Given that I...

Re: Bongo topping out at 30mph, no gear up

I dont undestand - I write befor - connect TAT and GND and look flash-codes! may be it will say more.... Not sure how to do that, just looking to see if there's a factsheet now. Would my local garage with fault code reader be able to plug in and find out easier? Update: the ATF was pumped out - bla...

Re: Bongo topping out at 30mph, no gear up

None of the above, cutlass. I just re-earthed the fuel tank, so now that works. Played with the diaphragm lock-nut/screw settings. In 'L' it will rev high up to 40+ mph but in 'D' it still hits ~3k and then just almost disengages and revs with no matching acceleration. Time to get the ATF changed? I...

Re: Bongo topping out at 30mph, no gear up

I would imagine 96 is early, If you are not sure you really need to get the Diesel removed from the housing for a visual inspection to determine you have a gauze or not.(it might be stuck in)but be careful with your prodding. Thanks for that. V useful. Suspect problem is elsewhere now - have just r...

Re: Bongo topping out at 30mph, no gear up

" I'm not sure it's the problem" - YES!!! wery old ATF will only influence at moment of change step gear... It dont reason what you engine dont rotation more 3000.... but - in next time you will change ATF - and you throw out "5l new ATF" what you now try pour into gear box........

Re: Bongo topping out at 30mph, no gear up

I'm not an engine designer or mechanic in that sense, but designers don't add parts that aren't needed in a design - there are however people in the world that know better than the original designers, because they don't know any better, that love changing things ;-) Ah, thought that might be the wa...
