Two Years passed 46 more thousand miles on truck, still rompin stompin strong after sure cure kit installed. I did just notice my torque converter is not locking and unlocking once I am settled into overdrive. Any ideas...

I do realize what it is I just wonder what I might have done in my repair process that disabled it. I don't mind it being gone, I hate it but it bothers me that I don't know what I did.

OK long weekend... Installed new TTVA, OD GOV solenoid and Transducer. Installed TV Kit and used the balancing spring provided because I wasn't sure if the bore was worn and I chose to use no shims provided. Adjusted 2nd gear band to the T as I could see it all with VB off. Test drove after...

Thanks again cerberusiam. I have the TV kit on order with the special spring for if wear is apparent to the VB. I have the GOV solenoid and transducer on hand to put in at the same time. I am also excited to see what the band and band strut look like with the VB out. I will make one more...

Thanks again cerberusiam.. I will try and make and sinkable reply here. I have read and looked it this on my spare time, my day job gets in the way, anyway its a head full messing with this. Let me run this buy you. I will attempt to attach pictures... The Cure all 48RE kit seems to come with...

Copy... For some reason I didn't see your post before I wrote my later. I will order the kits you mentioned and go from there and put my old actuator motor back on immediately. You say it wears the valve body itself, then will I have to have drill to get an oversize TV to work or will I be able...

" The TV throttle valve has a tendency to wear a groove in it and jam the valve as it is cycled. With a TV cable this manifests as a sticking throttle application at a certain position. With the TTVA motor it cause the TCM to think there is a problem with the motor." I believe in the above...

When looking at the VB kits, it shows symptom 1 to 2 shuttle and 1 to 2 soft. not having second at all isn't a symptom. I notice most assume no second is simply band issue. But when I go back to 2005 forums it is clear that the TTVA caused no second at all and they changed many TTVA and fixed...

Thanks cerberusiam.. I been away from computer but have played with transmission a bit in an attempt to learn about this truck as I wont likely ever be able to replace it.. I need to learn to fix it. Aside from learning my 3rd front left wheel bearing was bad and changing it, I did in fact change the...

Thanks for that input although its scary and not what I want to hear. I believe I found a used TTVA to try and see what happens and I found the OD GOV Solenoid and Transducer for about 100 bucks each at advance auto. Seen some kits on eBay but not sure about them. I will look for the TTVA...

OK I found these codes in some old forums using google. P1751 Chrysler Transmission Throttle Valve Position Sensor (TTVPS) P1754 Chrysler Transmission Valve Actuator Stuck (TTVA) Apparently when the trucks were new they had issues and there were lots of back orders on these parts. The Only...

By the way the codes read P1751 and P1754 Transmission Throttle Position Sensor and a actuator or something. Still trying to look that up

Thanks a bunch. Yes I think the nut was plenty loose. I adjusted it twice or 4 times and can’t imagine not having it loose enough all times. I have always adjusted the bands on all the dodges I have had over the years with no problems. The second time I adjusted it, I did it with the Pan off. Of...

Second post, I'm new and though I may have the first one in wrong area as I had no response.. .. I will try and make this short and to the point. 148,000 on truck no problems with transmission. Winter time one year ago I changed u joint on rear shaft. Truck was cold and been sitting a couple weeks...
