Okay took the truck to a Class A transmission shop. He put his state of the art scanner on the truc, we went for a ride(half hour). It set codes for shift solenoids, trans slipping,fuel pump stepper valve?,and linkage position sensor. His opinion was it was the fault of the computer. So I went to the dealer got a rebuilt computer, put in my chip from the old one. Same problem, maybe worst. Friday I drove all day pulling a 16' trailer, trans worked okay would not go to fourth but started in first, at 3P.M I was on I95 it shifted up and then went into fourth locked up I drove for half hour at 65(going to the dealer to get the new computer). Put in the new computer, only started from first when I started after having the engine off, otherwise started in second each time and returning on I95 never went into fourth. I asked the tech at the tans. shop about replacing the ignition switch he said not in this case. So now I sent over $200 nothing has changed.
