This has happened to me maybe 3 or 4 times in the last couple years, either after i've been very stuck and beating on my jeep (4-5 grand while stuck) Happened sunday when i was just spinning my rear wheels on ice.

So what happens is the jeep for some reason decides not to use first gear anylonger. It appears like the tranny is fried (almost no power etc beacuse its in second). Every time it can be fixed by simply turning the jeep off, then back on.

Is this some kind of limp home feature? or is something just funky with my Transmission control module or its connections?

I am Who I am and you cant change that.
