Default 4L60E new stall problems HELP

just installed a revmax 3600 stall in my car i have only put about 100 miles on the trans with new converter the trans has about 10k miles since rebuild everything was working great then i put taller tires on and it thru a code for shift solenoid b stuck open and did not have 1st gear cleared the code and put my old tires back on now it seems that 1st and 2nd gear were working fine and when it shifts to 3rd it just revs up i get out of the gas and it will rev to about 4500 rpm and will pull but seems to be slipping. i unplugged the big wires on the trans to put in to limp mode for 3rd and 3rd worked for about 15 sec.then lost all gears even reverse plugged it back in cleared all codes started the car and the car will move for about 3 sec then have to turn the car off and back on to get it to move again it will move for only about 3 sec i have to keep restarting it to pull it in the garage.the trans pan is pretty hot.is the trans shot or is it a tuning issue

Do any codes keep coming back? If so I would start there but even if the electrical has issues it should still move forward and backwards. At least I have never seen an electrical issue cause no movement on a 4L60E. Could be a clogged filter or failed converter or a clogged filter from a failed converter... its easy enough to pull the pan and see if its full of junk..

If it is trying to shift into 3rd and then neutrals out it sounds like the 3-4 clutch pack is shot. Slipping will create a lot of heat, this could explain the pan being so hot.

Sounds like the filter is clogged. Time for a rebuild.

I was thinking it needed rebuilt but what caused it is where I'm lost is it tuning or could it have been cause i drove it with the code on or something else that would cause it to go out.
