Default Trans question

2001 Dodge Ram 1500 5.2L Extended Cab

Truck goes to park, reverse, neutral, drive no problem what so ever. However she wont shift outta first gear. Tried drivin around and getting it to shift by letting off it at different RPMs. Still stays in first.

Yes, I did do some research on the site. Nothing fit my problem 100% but some of the conclusions people came to for similar problems was to change the "govenor pressure sensor & solenoid" Anyone think that this is my problem or any ideas as to what it could be?

Just got a refurb PCM cause I had "No Bus" before...truck starts now and everything with the PCM just doesnt shift from first...maybe bad programming...are the shift points controlled by the PCM?

Feel free to throw any idea out there, thanks

PCM Controls shifting..... any service engine lite? Did they give you a PCM for a manual trans truck? Where did you get the PCM from?
