Hi my vehicle is a ford transit 80TD SWB auto panel van (1999 Reg Diesel Automatic ,what my problem is it has been converted fully for a disabled person in a w/c,
The gear selection is done by electronic control consisting of four buttons in a black box i would like to convert it back to its original status but i dont have the components or know what they are from gear selection inside the cab to connection on the transmission i would very much appreciate any help or pictures of components and which order they go in and fitting procedure many thanks john.

Because I'm sooooooooo jealous now!!! :x :P :P I saw it on e-bay, niiiice one - if that's the one! Why are you converting it into manual tho? It seemed to have everything in place... If I didn't have my minibus already I would have bid on it too :roll: :oops: :oops: Isn't it such a shame to convert it into manual?? I'm sure AndyG will back me up on this... :lol: Is there something wrong with it?

*edited, because I obviously can't spell right at this hour... :oops:
