Hey Mardy - I have done it four times now since last night and still the same result. I never unhooked any wires or anything other than the 2 to the intercooler. I will check it one more time.

Sorry for the delay; I was away camping. I am not sure about the cost because that was a part of pre-sales service at Amazing Auto Imports and Mardy mentioned my name already. According to Google the part MD620874 price is bouncing at around $200.

1st generation Dodge trucks with the 12V Cummins have a problem TPS as well....The solution on the Dodges is to wire in a volume control on the dash. You can set the resistance and gives you nice on the fly adjustment of the shift points.

We did this on a friends Cummins and it works awesome...total cost is 12.00 and maybe a good solution.

Just an idea $12.00 is better then $200.00 and I cannot tell you how nice the adjustable shift points are towing, driving, hills etc..

I know this is way down thread but this information saved me as well. Was told I needed a transmission inspection and likely rebuild. Found this, moved my intercooler out of the way and then found the voltage on my TPS to be 0.62 V. Adjusted to 0.8 V and my problems disappeared for now. Thank you.

This thread is a great find! I've made a copy to the L400 Technical Reference Library (minus the off-topic posts), hopefully others with the same issues won't have to search quite as hard as you did. Thanks!
Nothing says "poor workmanship" more than wrinkles in the duct tape.

I’m having similar transmission issues but my delica is a 2002 model so not sure if it even has a TPS. Any ideas?

A year and half later and everything is still just fine. This information saved my vehicle and saved me from selling it for a huge loss more than likely.
