I have a 91 4dr Sidekick with the 3 speed automatic. Crawling around yesterday found some wires going to the kickdown control that had been cut and rerouted. A black&red wire was cut and the black and yellow wire were cut. The blk/red and blk/yellow are then wire nutted together on the engine side of the harness. Blk/red and blk/yellow going to the kickdown. go to nothing, just cut. Car shifts fairly well, hard downshift to second at times when accelerating. Supposedly had a new tranny at 65,000 miles, rig now has 100,000. Any idea what they were trying to accomplish with this bypass ? Thanks for all your help
