Default Trans. Issue--PLEASE HELP

Hey guys!

I am new to the forum and have a question that needs an answer..I figured why not come to the place where I have the best chance of getting a honest answer.

I own a 2002 Dodge Ram 1500 and my engine light has come on and I am having some strange issues. My gears seem to be slipping and causing my truck to downshift it feels like. Sometimes it will catch the right gear, but then slip again and sometimes feels like neutral because I can push the gas but not increase in speed. I checked the comp. codes and got p0733, p0732, p0734...any ideas or anyone heard of this problem?? Do you think it may be the TRS??

Please let me know if you have any input or ideas on the cause!

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!

p0732 is Gear 2 incorrect ratio,33 is the same but gear3 and 34 is the same but gear 4. Sounds like some kind of sensor but I'm not exactly sure. Someone else will chime in with more exact info just hang on.

Possibly a bad TCM, but more likely, it's tranny rebuild time...

Thanks,..

The problem is that I just had it "rebuilt" a year ago...still paying off the loan from that...a year later it looks the same and the warranty went out 10 days ago...not too happy.

The reason I ask about the TRS is because maybe that might be it this time...

If anyone else has any comments please feel free to respond.

Those codes mean that the front of the trans is spinning too fast in relation the the rear of the tranny. AKA slipping.

Had to have a transaxle rebuilt in a Windstar I had, for the same issue.
