I assume you mean the speedometer has stopped working.
The VSS (vehicle speed sensor) is mounted at the back of the trans. Perhaps the connector fell out or the wiring got too close to the exhaust and melted. The trans will not shift correctly without the correct speed being sensed.
Take it back to the trans shop; it is their responsibility.

Yup the connect to the VSS is kinda loose and the green and black wire have some shortage or it seems like the wires have some skin cut off of them.

They replaced the vss and speedo still doesn't work. They stated at first that its the gauge cluster. I told him it was working before and and after the transmission rebuild. Then I told him that the first gear on the transmission would not kick in so she tested the car by driving it and stated that I was right so they said that the vss may not may not be grabbing any connection the speedometer so I left the transmission at the shop so they can take a look at it in more debt wish me luck

Could the shift kit they installed cause this problem?

Last night my father told me a i have a transmission leaking.
So today i looked at it and it seems that i have a leak on the external cooler lines.

This is what they basically did.


This is an image from google search i did.

Mine does not have double clamps. only one. Is there any recommendations on how i can stop the leaking besides tightening the clamp more. obviously pressure is creating this leak.

Tighten the clamp and add another one. Ive had mine like this for a while and as long as its tight there shouldnt be any leaks
