Yes, this is the same truck I put a JY trans into last Nov. It is about 200 miles away right now, I only have "phoned-in" symptoms but want to get started gathering info. Hopefully it will get back after a long slow drive tonight.
For the last few months the 1-2 shift has been delayed, the engine often has to rev up toward 4000 rpm or more before the shift happens. Trans fluid and filter were changed about one month ago, no change. No codes set as I recall.
Today it will no longer shift out of 1st when the shift lever is in "D". However, it will do the 1-2 shift if the lever is in "2". Once in 2nd, moving the lever to D has not effect, the trans stays in 2nd. Fussing with the OD button seems to have no effect. Yes, fluid level was checked today and is OK.
I am well-familiar with the solenoids in this trans (the "easy three", at least) and the connector to them; so I will do some resistance checks if/when it gets back. Also, with live-data I will look for other clues.
Any other hints?
