if he is not very good then why are you there as he may have made a mistake in the repair???

have him go over all his work to see if he left any connectors off before assuming you have an internal issue

I brang the truck back too him and of cause he hooked up the computer and tells me now that it's the computer on the truck, I have too beleive that's not the issue, The car ran beutiful before the replaced alternator, The car is a 2001 lexus and has more sensor's then egine parts, I read that an alternator can mess with multiable parts, my suspsion is he put a cheap alternator and will not admit he messed up, Who likes too admit fault

if the new alt is bad and putting out ac voltage instead of dc voltage, then yes, it could cuse other issues but not shifting into overdrive would be 1 of many other issues.

did he say there were any codes when he put it back on the scanner??

I'm sorry I'm new too using this siteand not geting the hang of it, Yes he gave me a code of some sort but when I looked it up it said it meant that the car was being tested, keep in mind that the check eng light is on so its not giving me an ans, the check eng light is a whole other matter that I'm dealing with. But the light was on before That's when i relized he was not a good machanic, we where still dealing with that issue and being my sister uses the car she had him change the alternator, It seems the more he touches it the more i see he just guesses at the problems
All this, like I said He seems honest and was very fare in price, He worked on my Ford explorer and never had a problem with his work, I just beleive that the 2001 lexus is way out of his league

I don't have the code in front of me, as far as the eng light He changed the oxygen sensor, then I find out it has 3 so I brang the truck too someone else and they said it was bank 1 sensor he changed that and still the light is on, I put a new gas cap cleaned the MAF sensor and checked for cracked of leaky hoses myself, still light is on, I'm guessing It might be bank 2 sensor but mean while, Now I have too deal with this RPM before I resolve the egn light as I beleive the high RPM can kill the eng of the trasmission
