HI I HAVE JUST CHANGED THE ENGINE ON MY 2003 KIA SEDONA AUTO, NOW THE CAR WONT MOVE IN ANY GEAR. THE HOLD LIGHT IS FLASHING ON THE DASH, THIS SEEMS TO INDICATE A WIRING PROBLEM. ANY IDEAS PLEASE ?Need a replacement transmission? Quality transmissions are hard to find. Free estimate to your email.Is it flashing in any sort of pattern? If so, could you check the pattern and right down the numbers that it spells out? I can help better then.
Quickly, off the top of my head, I would have to say, check the interface wiring, first, between the transmission control module wiring harness and the engine control module. They both should be wired into a common bus that likely contains other major internal automotive systems. This is part of the CAN or Car Automotive Network also known as the Internet of Cars (IOC). Automakers are letting devices across your car talk through the CAN and if one system is left off the wire, so to speak, it won’t work.
In your case, somehow, I think the transmission control module has been left out of the picture and if it has, your Kia won’t move. Have your technician check into that. And, while he’s at it, have the tech put an OBD-II scanner into the diagnostic port to run down the exact problem and fix it.
Please let me know if this helps? And, let me know the results of the blinks on the Hold light.
