1996 trooper 4x4 speed sensor

Written by: i96trooper on Aug 06, 2009 01:08 AM

Have a '96 Trooper and the auto tranny popped out of OD gear on the highway. Had to drive home at 20mph as it will not upshift. Mechanic friend scoped and shows "vehicle speed sensor". I am looking to see if anyone knows the correct location and part number for this. There is one I can see on the transfer case and then mech said there is one on top of tranny. When I try to ...

Hi and welcome to the forum. I don't believe that the engine you have is a GM unless someone put it in, as the stock engine in the trooper in 1996 was an Isuzu 3.2 or 3.5...I am not sure when the breakpoint for the difference was. Regardless, it is always best to go back to basics first......your CEL is telling you there is a code set so it should be read. I think you have ... Read More...

I just found this particular forum for Isuzu owners, although I have owned my 1996 Trooper since December 2000. Purchased it with 42,000 miles and now have 81,000 miles. It was strictly my weekend and mountain vehicle (where I needed 4x4) ------ until my 16 year old daughter got her drivers license in May 2007. She loves this vehicle ---- easy to see traffic, nice ... Read More...

Hi there, I am little old New Zealand, and my 1996 isuzu is having issues with the TOD check light. As far as I can tell everything is working properly, but the green rear wheel lights keep flashing and the check light comes on, only when it is in 2WD mode (on my trooper the TOD is engaged with a stick shift as opposed to a switch on the dash). If I switch off the ignition ... Read More...

I don't know how you have made out so far, but I looked through Isuzu Technical service bulletins and found one for 1999. You don't specify which motor you have in your Rodeo, but if you think it would help, I can email you next week with the entire bulletin. This is just the subject matter for the TSB I found. It goes in to greater detail in the complete bulletin. BULLETIN ... Read More...

Isuzu Trooper

buzz of my 1996 trooper

Written by: thudy on Nov 06, 2005 10:28 AM

I bought my 1996 trooper on 78k miles this summer. When I purchased it, I brought it to the ISUZU dealer. They told me this vehicle is in good shape, maybe never off-road before. Howerver, there is something flaws: 1. the power steering pump leaking; 2. engine oil leaking; 3. need to change the CV-boot; 4. frant bearing loosing. For prob 1: I rebuilt the power steering ...
