2nd Gen Ram Tech1994-2001 Rams: This section is for TECHNICAL discussions only, that involve the 1994 through 2001 Rams. For any non-tech discussions, please direct your attention to the "General discussion/NON-tech" sub sections.
Pinouts are likely the same, I know they are on the Rams from 96 to 02. I suspect the problem you are running into is the typical sensor mismatch. In 2000, things changed, and the return values from temp/pressure sensor are different. What you need to do is pull the governor pressure sensor, and solenoid from the original trans, along with the retaining clip, and install them in the new trans. Should solve your issue. (or, you can pick up new ones, but, you still need the older style retainer.)
do you have to install the harness too when using original sensor and solenoid or can you splice in the connector?
