Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Blown transmission / Engine Codes

[NMongeau]

Hey guys i thing that the transmission in my truck died yesterday. it seemed to slip in first when i went to leave work then the check engine light came on. now it doesn't seem to shift to first gear at all. if i put it in reverse then back in drive sometime it will go into gear but still doesn't want to move well. is there any way i can check the codes in the comuter without a scanner? what would be the best way to fix the truck cheap considering that i am trying to sell it? i was thinking a new set of clutches and seals (stock) with a slightly better than stock converter (lower stall speed). the truck has a JRE #4 cam plate and a k&n intake that will be coming off after the transmission is done. (yea i know why the transmission blew :-laf )help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

First I would like to say "you were running a #4 plate on a stock transmission!"



Second, most likely you just tore up a set of clutch packs, you want to do it cheap, tear the transmission out replace the packs and sell it. You want to fix it right, call a transmission manufacture of choice and get a new transmission. Also Art carr will rebuild your factory torque converter for I think dont quote me for around 175 bucks. Basic rebuild.





I wouldnt even bother messing with codes, just go straight for the transmission.
