just another tranny post

Okay so I drive all day today with no problems. I drive to my office about 5 pm and go in for a meeting. Come back out in an hour and start the truck and drive off.... I notice its banging ALL gears instead of just the 2nd -3rd shift (been doing this for 3-4k and i've been kind to it). Look down... and of course the overdrive on/off light is blinking at me. I limped it home and it was too dark to do anything and no one around here that was still open had a code reader so I am having the codes read tomorrow and I will update the post then. No problems with the tach, no problems with the speedo, cruise control still works fine. I am thinking either the FIPL sensor needs replaced or maybe one of the connectors on the tranny might need cleaned. The tranny has ran a little rough since the bottom end of the engine went out while driving on the highway. It shifts okay from 1st to 2nd but 2nd-3rd is a little ackward and 3rd-4th is a little ackward. What does it feel like when the TC wears out? I've nursed the tranny for about 3-4k miles and its been fine other then the ackward shifts. I left the battery cables off for about 20-30 min and reset everything... took it for a drive about 5 miles, no flashing OD light and its back to its normal (yet abnormal) shifting patterns...

I would first try setting the voltage setting on the FIPL or TPS as some call it.

i got the codes read today.... codes 74 and codes 65 came up. After resetting the batteries last night everything went away. Drove it about 30 miles today and had no problems.

Ive heard that before......just like a comp. when it stops working unplug it and plug it back in...lol

My truck did this about a month ago.....the day I decided to take it to a garage to get the codes pulled it just stopped. I went to start it one morning and it drove like nothing happened.....no idea *** went wrong. I put a couple hundred miles on it and it still works fine.
