Truck starts and runs but in 3-5 minutes jumps out of gear to neutral. When I shut it off and restart it in 30 seconds to a min, it will drive again but within a couple of minutes it will get out of gear again. And switching to lower gears manually or 4x4 doesn't change anything. I changed the wheel speed sensor, but it remains the same. Thanks for any input.

Hi,

I need you to check if the wheel speed sensors are producing a voltage signal. Although the sensors are new, there could be an issue with a tone ring and the sensor isn't producing a signal.

Here is a link that provides directions for testing. You can do it this way or if you have a live data scanner, check to see if the sensors are all signaling the same.

Note, the link shows how to test the sensor and also test to confirm it is putting out voltage.

Let me know.

Joe
