    HELP! 48re won't shift after service

    208000 miles on the truck, never had any problems with the transmission, it was time for an oil/filter change and I read on here that I should replace the governor pressure solenoid and sensor. Did that with Borg Warner parts. Also adjusted the bands per service manual, now it only shifts out of...

    F U-joint replacement how-to tips

    Big thanks to Cumminsense for the sequence to changing the double cardan u-joints. $78 in parts and a couple hours in the shop after a big thanksgiving dinner and I'm back on the road. It makes a huge difference to have a 2nd set of hands, that was my son-in-law paying off all the turkey and...

    Window goes down...not up

    I have answered my own question. After looking at a wiring diagram I determined there are no relays in the circuit. Took the switch module apart, cleaned the contacts and it works. I think I'll go ahead and order a switch unit, ($115. 00 from rockauto), because of the wear on the contacts.

    Window goes down...not up

    Of course that happened 300 mi from home in heavy snow. Ran my drivers side window down to clear it and it wouldn't go back up. All other windows worked. Tried unplugging the switch and just jumping from the hot wire to all the other leads... nothing. Why not? Ended up unplugging the window...

    Won't shift into overdrive when cold

    But it seems like the code and shift problem are related, When I start my truck in the morning and the check engine light is off I know it is gonna shift... when it's on I know it aint... have been reading about some possible connection/ground problems with pps so going to remove it, clean and...

    Won't shift into overdrive when cold

    I have had a shift problem off and on for awhile now along with a 2127 code. I have noticed for the past week if I plug the truck in overnight it shifts fine and the check engine light goes off. If I don't plug in the truck it won't shift into overdrive for 10-20 miles. I was thinking...

    Torque Convertor won't lock...

    OK, I drove the truck 40 miles last night and got another code... 0243. found a bare/broken wire on the wastegate solenoid so I removed it, soldered the wire and reinstalled it... seems to have fixed that problem. Now the p2127 code is back, I checked all connections, everything seems to be ok...

    Torque Convertor won't lock...

    I took the truck to my wonderful local carquest and they cleared the codes for me... drove about 8 miles with no problems and check engine light did not come back on... we'll see.

    Torque Convertor won't lock...

    I borrowed an obd ii reader to clear the codes and it won't clear them... it reads the 2127 code but not the 0243. Ideas?

    Torque Convertor won't lock...

    I'm a 1st time diesel owner, bought a 2004. 5 3500 srw in November and am loving the truck. However about a week ago I left the house on a 130 mile trip and the TC wouldnt lock up... tried stopping, shutting off and restarting truck, speeding up, slowing down, etc. finally just set the cruise at...
