Well First off I got my truck stuck in mud and it was not sealed properly so water got in so I changed it, The transmission was working fine till a week after (which it still had water in there) But then it started to rev a lot higher then normal when going normal speeds. I have come down to the conclusion of missing second gear. There was no metal in the oil pan and the gears 1,3,4 still work just fine it is like no second ever exsisted all of a sudden on day. So is there anyone who can help me? I really would like to fix this problem as I just got this truck and well it makes me mad to know it is not working properly.

Chris, did you ever get this situation taken care of?

 

no, still thinking it is the valve body clogged or something, but I think the 2nd gear clutch works but 2nd gear doesn't engage, as 2nd manual it coasts, pop it into first and it pulls the truck a bit so 2nd works but with 1st gear drive, 2nd gear clutch so not sure but no metal so something clogged.

 

Is it possible for a fuse to cause this? Becuase recently I was checking the fuses under the hood and in side panel and well I noticed a 30 amp one was shot, I was looking for winshielf wipers which was in in the fuse box. But maybe this is it? I am going to replace this tomorrow.

 

i am interested in this too , i have exacly the same problem it just goes straight to 3rd gear and i think water got in too , i havent drained it but i will do that tomorrow , no check engine light and no codes , will check the oil pan tomorrow and see.

 

How do you torque the bands, it had some weird square top and I don't have anything to do that with I have a torque rench etc.. any ideas on how to do this without taking it to a dealer.

 

Hmm looked a bit more on the net found this:

Maybe the band is not adjusted which Is Why I want to adjust mine, but maybe it snapped the band? Im not sure.

 

i will try to adjust mine tomorrow , looks like a torx bolt and a nut next to the shift lever

 

Well i tried to adjust this band but it seems very hard as everything is in the way. Do I disconnect the stuff infront of me if so how?

 

seems to be a streched t.v. cable. I will be replacing it I just have to do it.
