    Default Check Engine Light On..Car Stalls whn Gear is Selected

    Hi Guys

    My wife has been having some dramas with our VT, everytime she starts the car the check engine light stays on and when she puts it into gear the car stalls. I had a look today and let the car warm up etc, but the check engine light stays on and as soon as you put it into D or R she stalls.

    My wife said it has been doing this for about a week but it will eventually run after awhile. Any thoughts your help is appreciated.

    The first step would be to do a code check. That would give you a starting point on where to look.

    It is code 67 Torque Converter Clutch On-Off Solenoid Control Circuit.

    So now where to from here? Is this solenoid on the side of the box?

    Thanks for the help so far guys
