Anybody know what happens if the bands are adjusted too tight? I know you have a lot of slip if they’re loose but I just want to know if trial and error might be dangerous

Too tight? Probably premature wear.

ok maybe I’ll try tightening the band a little more if the slip doesn’t go away with driving, I’m hoping it’s that fluid just needs to be pumped through more

I don't think that's your problem. The codes you are getting indicate something is definitely wrong in there......

so what should I do about the 3-4 solenoid, I didn’t touch the solenoid, I just put a new spring in. I was thinking maybe it went so long broken that the trans is expecting different pressure

Could the 3-4 issue be the shift valve spring? I know it’s in there, I remember putting it in, but I’m trying to tick all my boxes

Pretty sure you have a short to voltage in there. (volts to high) and possibly a pinched wire for the O/D solenoid as well.

Did you drop the valve body to change solenoids? If so, likely that's where the pinched wire is.

no I just pulled the valve body for the governor sensor/solenoid, and the accumulator housing for the wiring harness
