    Trans Temp Light

    So I changed the transmission fluid this holiday weekend.

    Today as I was driving it took a downshift and the A/T Temp light came on for about 2 seconds then all back to normal and nothing since.

    Any thoughts or suggestions?

    Running synthetic fluids and did the complete change including the filter and gasket.

    Thanks for the help.

    It wasn't bad, but it was time. It had been changed at 60K, but not the filter.

    It drove fine the rest of the day and I checked it with a scan gausge and no codes...

    Hopefully just a glitch. Had the same thing happen this spring, been OK all summer, & that includes a trip to Moab & a trip to SC.
