Default error code (torque converter)

I have an 05' Dodge 2500 Diesel that has a code error (P1740) that keeps coming on. The dealer replaced my torque converter, the transmission solenoid & transducer. 1 month later the same code error came on. Now the dealership says it is because I have too big of tires on the truck (325/60R18)and that it keeps tripping the engine light. Is this possible? I also am running a Juice Attitude computer (which I remove before I take it in to the dealer). I never use more than the 2nd setting,could it be tripping the error?

I don't know the solution to your question, but be careful with those diesel programmers. Some of them reset engine hours and engine idle time, and the first thing chrysler asks for if you blow a restricted part (turbo, injectors, some other things) is for the tech to pull those two items to be sure a programmer was not used.

Thanx for the reply but since I have already had the programmer hooked up, there is a record of it's use in the mother computer-right?
