Default Vehicle has no force

The vehicle has no force. You walk very slowly and I can not access a diagnosis

DODGE RAM 3500 1996

Had to be the most vague post ever. Start walking faster?

I suspect the OP isn't a native English speaker.

Check for intake leaks between the turbo and the intake - any rushing wind noises when putting a load on it (power braking)?

Short of that, get a fuel pressure gauge on it and see what the low pressure supply is.

thank you very much. First I apologize for not mastering the language well
The vehicle has no problems in the fuel circuit, the problem is in the automatic gearbox
It has no power by turning the wheels, it goes very slowly and sometimes it stops

When was the last time the fluid/filter was changed? Does the fluid look brownish and smell burnt? Any codes?

Yesterday I changed the transmission fluid / filter. Full of 4 liters, as the manual said
the codes that appear are the following: 37 and 42

37** Torque converter clutchsolenoid CKT orTrans temp sensortoo high or low
Open or short in CKT wiring or connectors. Voltage out of range at transmission temperature sensor input. See NOTE #1 below

42* Auto shutdownrelay circuit
Open or short in the ASD relay wiring or connectors.

The strangest thing is that being an automatic vehicle, the engine stops as when you release the quick clutch in a manual
There are any option to erase the fault codes

You can erase fault codes by disconnecting the battery for ten minutes or so.

The 37 code *may* be putting the trans into 'limp mode', so, it starts out in second gear, and you don't get overdrive.

Auto shutdown relay will kill the engine just like turning off the key. It will simply stop running.

Did you have mice chewing on wires by any chance?

I have reviewed the complete electrical installation and there is no broken cable.
with a diagnostic machine I see something strange, that the engine coolant temperature is 150 ° C and the transmission -60 ° C

That's gonna be a problem. Need to find out why you are getting odd readings from those sensors.

Hello, I have deleted the fault codes, and currently none of them appears when I boot.
the problem is that the vehicle has no force to move, it moves very slowly in all gears, if I put 4 LOW moves better.
this model is 3500 Diesel year 1995
Thanks for your help
