Is a TV cable the same as a kickdown cable?
“Kickdown” and “TV” cables aren’t really the same thing. Let’s take it from the top: Many old-school automatic transmissions use both a governor and a vacuum modulator to help regulate automatic shift timing. The governor works off of vehicle speed and engine rpm.
What happens if TV cable is too tight?
Be aware that a broken or disconnected TV will cause the pressure relief ball in the valve body to become fully seated. When this occurs, the transmission will have maximum line pressure, the shifts will occur extremely hard and late, and at lower vehicle speeds the transmission may not shift at all.
How tight should the kickdown cable be?
you want the cable to just about tight at full throttle. so yes, there might be slack in it at part throttle.
Can I drive without a kickdown cable?
Shouldn’t be a problem. The cable adjusts system pressure, so shift pressure. With the cable fully retracted it will shift lazy/slip a lot, if the cable was pulled fully out it will shift more firmly, less slip.
