I admit, I could have searched in here a little longer but.......

Here's the problem....At low speeds (not necessarily low RPMs...once I get past 40ish mph it works fine) My OD is having a tough time figuring out if it wants to be in OD or third gear. The obvious answer is "check the fluid levels"...which I have, they're fine. I've got a button on the dash that turns it off...which makes me think it's a sensor to the transmission that's gone bad....but I've looked through all my manuals and I can't find an OD section/wiring diagram anywhere. All I can find is maybe the throttle rod needs adjusting?

 

Same happned to mine but the button didn't work then. It ended up killing tranny to 1st gear only. Rebuilt and discovered O.D in backwards. Probably not your problem, but might want to watch so it doesn't cost you about a coo $1000.

 

OD in backwards? yikes......

Do you remember where on the transmission the line for the OD went to? I mean, there has to be some kind of electric something going back there right?

I guess if I have to pull the transmission out and rebuild it, so be it. As long as it waits till spring....no heat in garage = no fix to truck

 

I had someone do it for me, sorry, i not that mechanically inclined. I understand autos but couldn't put one together.
