Check the location of the tightly wound purple spring you installed in the kit. You might have installed it in the wrong location and blocked the 3-4 shift valve.

Hi, I just recently did the same kit and have the exact same problem. I was just wondering if you figured it out and could help me out? Thanks

Check your 2-4 servo travel. See attached instructions.

Ok on the 3-4 shift valve the HD3 tells you to remove and save a spring and install one on other side of valve , Some mistakenly think this means to reinstall that spring, But no its to be saved in case you want to go back to auto later, If reinstalled with the spring they supply for other side of valve it will result in the symptom you have.
STEP 6 PAGE 11 of the instructions.
