I just replaced the torque converter, topped off fluid new filter, new output shaft, all done properly. The issue I have is electrical and I have no idea where, everything else works fine. It free wheels after thirty mph. No leaks, no slamming from an attempt to shift, no attempt to shift at all. Also, no trouble codes.

It sounds like the problem would be at the electrical connector having corrosion or its not connected fully. Can you double check that and get back to me? I assume it had secound gear before?

Please let me know, Ken
