Default what an eventful weekend!!!!

so i am headed to tractor supply company on Friday.... my O/D solenoid goes out and my tranny kicks out of O/D and the tranny starts overheating, so i limp it home. well i round up all the stuff before everyone closes on friday. I had to get the parts from the dealer set me back $140, so while im at it i get the filter $10 and $5 for a felpro gasket and $5.49 a Qt for trans fluid and i have to have 6 of them so i am pretty much broke. Sat. morning i am off to my parents to get my dad to help me. i get half way the amd i give my good sameritain act of the week. this couple hydroplained of in a ditch and i pulled them out free of charge... and we head on our way... after about 3 hours of work and finally get my truck going.... so yesterday the idler pully for the timing on my dads 96 eclipse decides to bust to peices so we work on it for about 3 or 4 hours and now we both a a couple of whooped asses!!!

Just curious, how is thr tranny working since you replaced the solenoid. Any codes or OD/off appearing?
Good luck
