I have 2004 ram 2500 5.9 Cummings
I changed governor pressure solenoid, accumalator spring and transducer. I adjusted bands inside transmission, hand snugged (no torque wrench) and backed off 3 complete turns, I did not adjust bands on outside but now my not shifting into 2nd and 3rd is fine but it does not start in first gear unless I drop into 1st manually. I felt like my bands were looser after adjusting. Any ideas?
Update: I now have p0868 line pressure code but I didn't have a code even before I changed solenoid and transducer, I did not change the speed sensor. Can loose rear bands cause line pressure issue?
Thanks in advance

46re I think
it has a corner that sticks out on one end like a turbo 400 and a 45 degree cut corner at other end My pan but im still not sure what transmission it is

46 never came behind the diesel. Gotta be a 47, or 48.
Supposedly, the 1st gear band isn't used for 1st gear when the shifter is in drive.... it only engages in manual first. You already changed the parts that I would suspect first..... No idea if the output speed sensor would play a role there.
