if yall did somthing with the tcc plug then yall aint got an overdrive trans. cuz the overdrive trans dont have a tcc plug

 

Ok but it was running really rough at first but it changes gears and now its not changing stays only at 1st gear

 

Year and engine size would tell me if he were running a 4 speed or 3 speed. 3.0L is 50/50, but 3.3/3.8L would be a 4 speed. Thats why i was asking. We can't help if you and i don't have the right information. From what i am reading, he's in limp in.

 

According to the commonly known sources (chrysler literature, Hollander exchange, etc.), the chances of having a 4speed auto behind the 3.0 in 1997 is ZERO and the having a 3speed w/3.0 is 100%

1996, 97 did not offer the OD trans behind the 3.0. I'm assuming the 97 carvan 3.0 in the OP vehicle description is the trans in question.

Based on the year and engine, I bet that, if the person fixing the TCC, screwed up the valve body or the governor tubes. Hence no shift out of first because the valve body would have no clue that the vehicle was moving

 

So whats next ? I do need a new transmision ? Or is better and more economic to repair the same one ?

And yes is a 97 dodge caravan se and is 6 cylinders and 3.0 liter and 3 speed trans! Thanks you for the help !

 

At this point,I think it time to have the pro's look at it. This doesn't mean a new transmission. This means that you need to have a pro look at what is wrong with it. The problem like 92dak5.24x4 said, the tubes may not be lined up right.

 

Ok thanks cause the shop said maybe a i need a new transmision but i dont think so so im gonna need a second opinion !
How much money were talking about just to check it ?

 

Since when do transmission shops practice mental health? What's the Kent Moore number on that brain aligner?

 

Actually it's a Miller tool, Kent Moore makes the tools for GM.
to the originator, it is IMPOSSIBLE to guess how much it will cost to fix this problem... since it seems the problem didn't exsist until someone tried to 'fix' the tcc solenoid. why did you say it didn't shift into overdrive when you already knew it had a 3speed trans?

 

Oh yeah, Miller. Silly me. So pray tell, what number is it? I lost my KM version of it and I sorely need a replacement.
