Transmission problem
1995 Chevy Silverado V8 Four Wheel Drive Automatic

I have a 1995 chevy k2500 4x4 truck with the 4l80e in it. Sometimes it wont shift out of first gear but if you unhook the battery for a few minutes than hook it back up it will shift fine for a while. Do you have any idea of what it could be?


Thanks

Have you tryed putting shifter in position one then moving it to second gear? Does that cause it to shift into 2 or no

Ok first thing youll wana do in the case is to drop the trans pan and perform a test on the 1-2 shift solenoid and make sure thats working properly. Get back to me with what you find.
