Shift Schedules
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Dodge Grand Caravan, 2003 Dodge Caravan, 2003 Chrysler Voyager, and 2003 Chrysler Town & Country. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The PCM has programming that allows it to select a variety of shift schedules. Shift schedule selection is dependent on the following:
- Shift Lever Position
- Throttle Position
- Engine Load
- Fluid Temperature
- Software Level
As driving conditions change, the PCM appropriately adjusts the shift schedule. Refer to the following illustration to determine the appropriate operation expected, depending on driving conditions. See Fig 1 .
