A bad governor solenoid can also cause starting out in what feels like 3rd gear even when manually shifted into first.. you will need a t25 torx and 7/16 socket to remove the governor solenoid and transducer mount. And then replace them both while your in the transmission because either of them can cause the same issues. And you can also get the upgraded high flow filter for it while your at it and then if that was your problem you won't have to go back in the trans. One tip try to not use power tools when working on a transmission atleast not on the internals, everything strips very easily and then your screwed. And make sure you have the proper torque wrench to torque EVERYTHING back down correctly including the pan bolts which is (125 in lbs)and the filter is (35 in lbs) 😀 P.S. when working on a transmission take care to be extremely clean the entire time.
Where would I get the high flow filter that you spoke of ? I did purchase two new filters one was a brand name and the other came with the naw pan and gasket. I've been thinking of purchasing a cast aluminum pan instead of using the stamped aluminum one that I have . Question RTV should I use it to seal the transmission as apposed to using the gasket ?
I like to add, I did the swap before, but I didn't use OEM parts. The fix got me a couple years, but, here I am again, making a game plan to do it again, this time I got good parts, not one of the cheap kits...
hopefully you got your transmission to work properly. With the 47RE and 48RE first check your grounds to your tcu on the bulkhead. If needed, add another ground to the bulkhead (firewall) from your battery. An ATS GM Selenoid Conversion Kit would be advised. Also I would change the Output Speed Sensor. As an added plus while in the transmission, change to a BD Pressure Transducer Upgrade Kit. The plastic transducers are highly prone to breaking under the pressure. Noticing also that you have a deep pan with the stock location of the filter. You may buy an extension block kit to lower the filter into the pan a little more.
Hi, great video.maybe you can help me. I just got my 48re on my 08 ram 2500 diesel. All great now but it won't go into overdrive. It does ok one or two times before the transmission warms up. Once it is warm it will not go into OD. No codes on the scanner. Thank you.

Perdón por la respuesta tardía, he estado muy ocupado. Si no tiene presión de aceite en su transmisión, en realidad hay una válvula de retención unidireccional en su enfriador de aceite de transmisión.La inspeccionaría primero, trataría de soplar un poco de aire a través de ella en ambos sentidos y ver si es en una dirección o si está bloqueada. Si eso es bueno, cambiaría el solenoide de presión.

Need of Help! I have a 2006 Dodge Ram 3500 5.9. Bought the truck 2 months ago and my buddy told me there was a sensor put on the transmission for the second gear to kick in, now I have to idle the truck from the first gear with all RPM’s up. When it hits about 20 to 22mph the second gear kicks in. Just don’t want to buy another transmission.
Bro could you help me? I had a Transmission Rebuilt because the cooler messed up and mixed Transmission Oil and Antifreeze. So once it was rebuilt I noticed that after I went more then 38-40 mph it would stay on 3rd gear even ifI stopped at a Stop Sign 🛑 or at a Light . Then when I would accelerate at the stop to continue it would stay on 3rd gear. I was actually not paying too much attention and thought it was something else but i ended up messing up my cluthes so I did a second rebuilt with someone else and they rebuilt the whole thing. Still is doing the same thing. They went throught the Michelle Steps but couldn’t find anything. Scanner shows its the Governor Pressure Solenoid but it was changed 2 times. torque converter was also changed 2 times and still same issue. What do you think it could be
As much as it would suck I would ask someone that really know how to look into trans programming using a computer and look through all the sensors and what they're reading, could be the brain for the trans is no good.
Sorry to ask but my 1999 cummins 3500 I was in 2nd gear when I floord it went to first and on its on went to neutral thin I lit off it went to 2nd. It's does not slip but now it won't come out of first if I let off thin go to 2nd. An I can't get it in park any one know what it is
Tengo un ram 2500 2001 cambie la transmisión por una 48re pero ahora solo tengo el primero el segundo y el tercer cambio pero no el cuarto como si estuviera en O/D ya ajuste el TV cable pero sigue sin tirar el último cambio
Ok, ahora esto es un gran tramo, pero si cambió a una transmisión diferente, es posible que la ECU o la computadora de fábrica en el camión no sepan que es una transmisión diferente y tendría que programarse para la transmisión correcta en el camión ahora.
@@ksmotorsports9701 good evening, excuse me looking at your videos I want to explain my problem to you a bit, I just bought a Ram 2003 3500 cummins 4x4 the truck has this problem, if I start hard at a light or stop it only puts the first gear and the others don't, but when I start Normally, he puts in the gears well, what I notice is that he puts in the first gear at 15 o'clock and quickly puts in another gear again, that seems very fast to me, another thing is when I put passenger in it, it only revs but it does not advance, as it steers and I release the accelerator And quickly put the change, driving it normally if it works well, the only strange thing is that the 1st changes seem very strange to me.
@ErnestoDuran-kr9ie honestly I'm not too sure. If could be several things... from throttle position sensor to maybe changing the trans fluid and adding a additive like Lucas brand. I'm sorry I wish I could help more.
To sum it all up it was a bad torque converter, i didnt get any trouble codes. the dead throttle was due to the bad torque converter which was telling the TCM that was telling the ECU not to give any fuel. ill be posting an updated video of everything that was done and the ending results.
@@gravelbillyone9466 that's a negative I had to take it in the trans shop. I didnt have the space or the right tools to do such a big job. I ordered banks billet Torque converter.

@@ksmotorsports9701 Hey I know its been a year. Sounds like my 05 issue in my 3500. If I go wide open throttle in any gear it slips and rpms drop. But if I'm easy on it you wouldn't know you had a problem with the torque converter.
I did have a problem with my TC (torque converter) I had to replace it due to a bad sprag bearing. But with mines the truck still wanted to go while at a dead stop, as if I was pressing on the throttle.

Very good video. Thank you
Thank you I appreciate the support
While the pan was off, you should have done a band adjustment. There's one in the pan and one on the drivers side outside.
I did both band adjustments before I made this video
What was your initial problem? Code P0869 high line pressure?
Thank good video
Glad you liked it
Try changing your throttle position sensor.

I'm not too sure. Make sure you check all your wires going into the trans make sure theyre not frayed. Does the truck drive ok when it's not in OD?

When it hits about 20 to 22mph the second gear kicks in. Just don’t want to buy another transmission.
I would try to figure out what sensor was installed. That could be the culprit.
So I have an 01 Cummins that doesn’t down shift unless I put it into neutral. Could this be the culprit? Or is that something else
It ended up being the torque converter.
Damm... got the same truck doing the same thing... was it also shifting fast for you? 20mph and was in a high gear. Highway gear?
It was actually shifting normal through all gears, just at a full stop it still wanted to go.

I got mines from sinister diesel.
It was your accumulator spring.

Sounds like your 1 - 2 shift band is worn, how’s the adjustment is the band adjusted all the way in already? If not try adjusting it.
@@stubbornmike4842 I fond the problem was the 2 gear band lever broke I replaced it an now it shifts great thanks
