Trans temp is monitored bu gove pressure sensor. It is a thyristor in the unit. Gotta pull the pan and it is locaet on the bottom of the valve body.

Look in DIY section for factory service manual. Best investment of your time, excellent resource.

46RH will not have a gov sensor or solenoid. 46RH will have the temp sensor located on a cooler line at the trans if you have a tow package. No tow package converter solenoid circuit. Surprised the trans lite isn't on along with O/D locked out.

If the wires and the connector look ok, the switch most likely just went bad. Things don't last forever.
