Last weekend I installed the shift kit and sonnax valves recommended by Tim Holt and I love the way the truck shifts now, but I need some help.



here is the problem(s)



yesterday I decided to run the key sequence to check for codes. never had one before but to my surprise, there were 2 codes.



P0868 trans fluid pressure low

P0713 trans fluid temp sensor high input



Here is my therory so please tell me if I am way off.



P0868 low pressure because I had the pan down and valve body out so long, I lost a lot of fluid. filled up jugs with old fluid and had right at 10 quarts. If my memory serves me correctly, I think I started the truck for a few seconds after only put in about 5 quarts. I think maybe the low fluid caused the code. any thoughts?



P0713 I turned the key on to move gear selector while hooking up linkage and hadn't connected the solenoid harness yet. that connector is where the trans temp sensor feeds pcm. I think maybe that set that code. any thoughts?



I have run the truck for a week and the codes never set a light, they are just in there. the truck runs and shifts awesome.



Will these codes clear themselves after some time or do I have to go have them removed as they drive me crazy.
 
Need to get them CLEARED. Then drive and recheck. Need a DRB to clear them or to check if they keep setting. I think the DRB can tell you if there old codes or new. How many key cycles since set etc.
