Default no 1st 2nd 3rd 4th or reverse.. just park and nuetral, locks up when put in gear

what does this mean.. kinda a lil metal on metal sound and a learch as soon as the transmission drops into gear then it shuts the car off abruptly!!!! park and nuetral work much better... but it kinda feels weird.... wtf is going on.. im swapping to a th350 but im just wondering what the hell is wrong now, and if i can get it moving relatively easy i may.. also wondering what chance the fuddle converter isn't damaged ect

Not sure what the cause could be since there could be several , But the cutting off abruptly would be the lockup clutch staying on

could the converter be improperly seated??? i mean or could it have messed up itself?? transmission has brand new internals.. everything in the valve body appears to be hoooked up.. its as if something grabs the converter and keeps it from moving and kills the engine.. does thatmake sense?

well the converter iself could have and issues or the trans could have a sticking valve or solenoid . Or the car could be comanding lockup for some reason , To eliminate that unplug the harness from trans and see if it still does it if not your dealing with and electronics issues ranging from shorted wire to a PCM If it does it with the plug un done your dealing with a transmission/converter issue.

it didn't do it anymore.. but it didn't do anything else.. i had no manual control whatsoever... like i thought if that was unplugged it just locked it in 3rd gear or something but i had nothing

didn't jump and cut off though.. so that means its an electrical problem?

yea i wont have fourth... but hell i just honestly want 1st and 2nd.. i didn't pay the taxes and registration a few months ago b/c it was setting anyways so i gotta go get a new lil 07' sticker for the plate anyways before she goes anywhere very far..

im swapping in the th350... ill be selling the otherwise working 4l60e for prolly 100-150$ figure somebody needs a core to save 500+$, and the converter for prolly the same.. pretty much i live in an apartment and its gotta be gone, i just want to proove it works..

rather this works or not big big THANKS to performabuilt for all his help and awnsering the longer pm's lol.. a sponsor is a sponsor, but one that volunteers to help and awnsers ur pm's when ur not buying something is probably one that will when you do buy something and need help.. i read a lot of times a product doens't work and people suddenly cant get in touch with anyone. well people should really think about buying from those sponsors who are always out here helping and replying with no money or real reason for them to be doing so.
