This morning I was cruising to bring the kids to school. Right before we arrive the school, the car shocks for two or three times very hard and then the ATX didn't respond on gas anymore. It was like N, even when I put it in D or 2. It was a downhilled road, so I let the car roll out until school, it was about 500m. When I brake to make a turn, I noticed that the ATX was "connected" again and shifts back (it was on D at that time). But after 20 meters or so, it lost the "connection" again. I parked the car, turned the car off, brought the kids to school.
When I want to drive again, I started the car, it is working as expected, but when the ATX was about to shift to 2 or when I lift the gas, it died again. It is like N all the time and the engine is stationary at ~1500rpm all the time even when I don't give any gas (it is usually ~750rpm). I turned the engine off, turned back on and then it works again for a while, but when the ATX should shift or when I lift the gas, the ATX died again. The story continues when I turn the engine off and on.
There is no CEL and also no (flashing) OD light. Nothing at all. Just an ATX which decides to stand in N all the time and an engine which decides to run stationair at higher rpm than usual after driving a (short) while.
Any insights? A dead sensor again? Or really a dead ATX?
