P0783 after rebuild
#11
Good job pricing kit from Cascade......but......did you check anywhere else? Get trans overhaul kit for that price elsewherem such as wittrans or PATC.
I would not touch anything on it...take it back to shop. Don;t give them a chance to use the "you voided the warranty" line! Suggest checking fluid level, warmed up, in NEUTRAL first. Most obvious free checks are often overlooked. Shop needs to see code (or they may not believe you....)

The "shop" I had it rebuilt at is just an old timer with a lift in his garage. He is very well known around here and a lot of the dirt track and drag racers around here use him. For piece of mind I will discuss what my issues are with him before I start doing anything.
I just like to be informed on these situations when they arise. That and I don't sleep we'll when there is something wrong with one of my vehicles so I spend most of the night researching.

Have you downloaded the service manual from here? If not, I would recommend doing that as well, and printing out the tranmission section for reference. Even take the copy to him as it may help him understand exactly what is happening. When I work on something (family members with car troubles can wear you out) I want to actually be able to see what the code is as I have been told one thing to only find out later that they were mistaken.
If he is a reputable guy, he will want to make it right. But nothing wrong with dong the research ahead of time, and allowing to engage in a conversation with him with some understanding.
keep us posted on results. And I loose sleep as well!

Quick update. Crawled under the truck today and the sensor on the Trans needs to be replaced. I'm pretty sure it wasn't replaced in the rebuild. It looked old, also the female end of the connector part wiggled a lot. Had to order one cause auto zone was fresh out. Also gonna replace the sensor on the rear diff. It spun freely and came apart. Waiting on that part as well. Hope this fixes my issue!!

If that does it, you are lucky...and I would take luck any day.
Hope that does it!

Replaced the sensor on the Trans and the rear diff and nothing. Called the rebuilder he gave me a few things to check. I'll get to that when I get a chance. He said it could be the obvious things such as the sensor or solenoid or just a glitch somewhere between the Trans and PCM. He said if he could find what is wrong with it and its from his work he'll make it right. I just gotta get the truck over to him. Keeping my fingers crossed though.
Also, if it is the solenoid or sensor, does anyone know what might have caused them to go out so soon??
