DELAYED AND HARSH UPSHIFTS REPLACE TV CABLE

Bulletin Covers:

Some 1989 DeVilles, Fleetwoods, Eldorados, or Sevilles may exhibit a condition of delayed and harsh upshifts. This may be caused by a dragging condition in the TV cable.

To repair this condition use the following procedure:

1. Check the TV cable for a severe bend at the transmission end. Refer to Figure 1.

2. Replace the cable, if severely bent, with P/N 1641916.

General Motors bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, not a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform those technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, do not assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See a General Motors dealer servicing your brand of General Motors vehicle for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information.
