I just put a new to me trans in my 01 1500 and on my first drive around the block it didn't shift out of first gear. I dont have the kickdown cable adjusted, but from what i read it needs to move through the throttles whole range of motion. If im wrong, someone please correct me. I dont have access to a scanner that could tell me line pressures and pressure sensor activity, but if those sensors are bad, would it not let the trans shift? Thank you guys for your help.
I have no idea. The 7 pin connector and every other connector for that matter, plugged right in with no problem. I could take a the sensors and connector out of my old trans and put it in there. But I was losing first gear and dont want to switch the valvebodys.
It's the pressure sensor, and possibly governor solenoid that are different. Wouldn't need the whole valve body, there is a different clip that holds one, or the other, in. Having the wrong electronics in there will definitely give you some interesting problems.
