Help! Where is the C130 Connector?
Does anyone know where the C130 connector is on a 98.5 4X4 automatic? I am having trouble with transmission shifting and also with alternator charging when I first start my truck. I have a brand new alternator from Dodge and 2 new optima batteries. I checked and cleaned the grounds and they all checked good. I also just had a brand new DTT trans installed with new solenoids. I am suspecting a possible problem with a BUS wire but I am unable to locate this connector with the repair manuals I have. I looked on the identifix website my shop subscribes to and I got a lot of hits to check this connector at this pin. Also, is the BUS an actual module and where can I find it? Any help would be great!

Bus refers to a twisted pair of communication wires that go to each computer module. Believe C130 is at power distribution center.
Is it possible the tranny got wrong electronics in VB?
A more complete diescription of issues would be helpful.

Thanks dozer12216. I will look for that this afternoon. The issues I am having with my truck is no matter what changes I make my trans will always shift at 1400 rpm's and I have it set to shift around 1800-1900 under light throttle. At first I thought I may have gotton the wrong or faulty electronics so I bought new solenoids and that did not fix the problem. You no when you adjust the tv cable the shift point will change dramatically with just a few clicks, well mine stays exactly the same and has no effect on the trans. I put a new cable on for the heck of it and still no change. I am hoping that I have a problem with the voltage on the BUS wires or an issue with that C130. If you have any ideas that would be great. I will repost after I check it. Thanks.

Have a parts store read codes with their reader. If they can communicate, then bus is fine. Now to Throttle cable adjustment. Two levers on left side of tranny. Lower is shift lever, top one is throttle lever. It should be fully forward at closed throttle, but you can physically move it rearward. Cable should be adjusted so that any movement of throttle pedal causes a movement of lever on side of tranny. Hope this helps...
