'96 1500 trans

Nov 21, 2005 1 Replies

I didn't realize I had no first gear in the auto trans., until today. Someone else drove it and suggested I do not have first gear. The truck has driven this way since 2001!.



Is it possible something like linkage or a solenoid or an electrical problem? Also, the overdrive indicator light has not worked since



2001. Can there be a connection between no first gear and no OD light? The tranny does not whine or make any strange sounds.

Thanks, J1



The no first gear issue might be a governor pressure sensor/solenoid problem , which seems common.

As to the OD light, its usually off, unless you lock out the OD.
