Fig. 21 Governor Components (30RH/32RH)
21 - 108 30RH/32RH IN-VEHICLE SERVICEJ

Inspection
Check the sprag shaft for scores and for free move-
ment in the housing and sprag.
Check the sprag and control rod springs for loss of
tension or distortion. Check the square lug on the
sprag for broken edges. Check the lugs on the gover-
nor support (park gear) for broken edges. Replace
any park lock components that are worn or damaged.
Check the knob on the end of the control rod for
nicks, burrs and free turning. Replace the rod if the
knob is grooved, or worn, or if the rod is bent. The
park lock rods used in Chrysler 3-speed transmis-
sions are different lengths. If the rod must be re-
placed, be sure to install the correct length and
shape rod.
COMPONENT INSTALLATION
(1) Install park lock rod on valve body.
(2) Install reaction plug and pin assembly in the
housing and install the snap ring.
(3) Position sprag and spring in housing and in-
stall sprag shaft. Be sure square lug on sprag is fac-
ing park gear and that spring is positioned so it
moves sprag away from park gear.
(4) Install valve body.
(5) Install adapter housing and transfer case.
PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH SERVICE
The starter feed circuit of the switch is through the
switch center terminal (Fig. 23). It provides a ground
for the starter solenoid circuit through the gearshift
lever in park and neutral only.
The two outer terminals of the park/neutral posi-
tion switch are for the backup lamp switch circuit.
SWITCH TEST PROCEDURE
(1) Remove wiring connector from switch.
(2) Test continuity between switch center terminal
and transmission case. Continuity should exist onlywhen transmission is in Park or Neutral. Replace
switch if continuity occurs in any gear other than
Park or Neutral.
(3) Shift into reverse and test continuity between
two outside terminals on switch. Continuity should
exist only when transmission is in reverse.
(4) Leave transmission in reverse and test continu-
ity between each switch outer terminal and transmis-
sion case. Continuity should not exist between either
pin and case in reverse.
(5) If switch tests OK, check gearshift linkage ad-
justment or backup light circuit. Replace switch if it
fails continuity tests.
SWITCH REPLACEMENT
(1) Position drain pan under neutral switch.
(2) Disconnect switch wires.
(3) Remove switch from transmission.
(4) Move shift lever to Park and Neutral positions.
Inspect manual lever fingers, lever and shaft for
proper alignment with switch opening in case. Re-
place lever if worn or bent. Do not attempt to
straighten the lever.
(5) Install new switch and seal in case. Tighten
switch to 33 Nzm (24 ft. lbs.) torque.
(6) Adjust transmission fluid level as required.
(7) Verify switch operation.
SPEEDOMETER SERVICE
Rear axle gear ratio and tire size determine speed-
ometer pinion requirements. If the pinion must be re-
placed, refer to the parts catalogue information for
the correct part. It is important for speedometer ac-
curacy that the pinion have the correct number of
teeth.
The speedometer assembly used in XJ models is
the new unit type (one-piece) speed sensor (Fig. 24).
However, YJ models may be equipped with either the
new unit style, or the older style that has a two-piece

dirty or oxidized. Replace sensor if faulty, or pins are
loose, severely corroded, or damaged.
SPEEDOMETER INSTALLATION AND
INDEXING (UNIT STYLE)
(1) Thoroughly clean adapter flange and adapter
mounting surface in housing. Surfaces must be clean
for proper adapter alignment and speedometer oper-
ation.

adapter. Tighten sensor attaching screw to 2-3 Nzm
(15-27 in. lbs.) torque.(5) Install speedometer pinion in adapter.
(6) Count number of teeth on speedometer pinion.
Do this before installing assembly in housing. Then
lubricate pinion teeth with transmission fluid.
(7) Note index numbers on adapter body (Fig. 25).
These numbers will correspond to number of teeth on
pinion.
(8) Install speedometer assembly in housing.
(9) Rotate adapter until requiredrange numbers
are at 6 o-clock position. Be sure range index
numbers correspond to number of teeth on pin-
ion gear.

level if necessary.
SPEEDOMETER COMPONENT REMOVAL
(TWO-PIECE SENSOR)
(1) Raise vehicle.
(2) Disconnect speed sensor wires.
(3) Remove bolt attaching vehicle speed sensor to
sensor adapter. Then slide sensor out of adapter.
(4) Inspect speed sensor mounting area in sensor
adapter. If transmission fluid is found in this area,
oil seal in metal speedometer adapter is leaking and
will have to be replaced.
(5) Remove speedometer adapter clamp bolt and
remove clamp (Fig. 26).
(6) Remove speedometer adapter, sensor adapter
and speedometer pinion as assembly.

tem will result in repeat failure and a shop come-
back.
