electronic transmission problems help i have a built 4l60 e in my 94 and it wont shift into 3rd gear at any rpm it just feels like neutral im doubting if there is anything mechanicaly wrong with the trans because i changed the fluid and it was bright red no metal flakes or anything, and seeing how it has only been in it 4 a month with stock tires so im thinking something electrical in the trans like a servo or something for 3rd gear is messed up let me know what u think thanks
Well if it feels like 1-2-neutral then the 2-3 shift is being comanded so it is more then likley a mechanical failure. With no debris the most common thing is the snap ring broke or came out of the 3-4 clutch.

had a similar problem and it was electical. My car would feel the same way goes into neutral with shifting to 3rd. It was just in the wiring. After i fixed that worked like a charm
Thanks!

Mine is similar too. But it only does it sometimes going into 4th (overdrive). Ive been racking my brain with this and I really wanna know whats goin on with it. Its the factory tranny and its a 2001 T/A.and it only seems to do it on the interstate. Any help is appreciated!!
