Do you have any codes? Are you sure the transmission has power and a good ground? Is the harness wired for a 4L60E or the 4L80E you have. The plug looks the same but I'm told the wiring is different (can't verify since I've never worked on an '80E).

About the grounding issue... I can't stress the importance enough. I've chased some intermittent gremlins in one of my cars and discovered a grounding issue myself.

Are you using HPTuners or EFI Live 7 to scan it? If so try using the bidirectional controls to force it into 1st, 3rd, and 4th, Does that work?
