1994 ford f350 transmisson won't come out of park by Elflippo659

The automatic transmisson won't come out of park! The brake light switch is working. Is there a solenoid that has to be energized when the ignition key is turn on or the engine starts that allow the shift level moved from the park position?

F-150 5.4L Auto Tranny by Jack3rd

I have a 2004 F-150 that just turned over 100k miles, and there is a distinct whine from the tranny starting at 25 MPH and lasts until the OD kicks in. A friend of mine says it's the thrust bearing. There has been a mild vibration ever since I had it (bought new) but it seems to be getting worse. Any thoughts from anyone?

2004 F150 Lariat - need help -transmission? by yakopi1

I have taken my vehicle in for the third time now for transmission related problems. The first time, they identified a blown seal (I believe). The second time a speed sensor was replaced. I am still having problems while in 4WH. When I am parking the car or starting out of a stopped condition, the vehicle will jump and sound like it is stalling. It is also very difficult to steer while in the same circumstance.
 
Any help/info is appreciated.

I had the same problem with a 93 F-350 and it was the throttle position sensor caused the problem

f-150 automatic trany by bob3005

I am looking into my brother's 2004 f-150 automatic transmission problem, it won't shift into first or reverse without gassing it. I can get it to move but that seems to be about it. The fluid looks fine, and no noises.
This is a pampered F-150 4.2 L 6 cyl with less than 42,000 miles on it
He sent it to the shop and they said "bad transmission $ 2900.00 to fix it.
I have read several nightmare stories on this forum about this year and all the problems with it's transmission but no real answers! (for me)
Questions:
Can this one be pronounced junk?
Is there a chance that a used trans. would be any better? or are they all junk?
Is there an older version that will fit and be more reliable?
Are they or anyone else upgrading them when rebuilding them with better parts?
I'm asking because there are about 50 of these trans available and it scares me.
Thanks for your input.
If Ford insists on cranking out these %x&** things, how can they ever expect repeat customers? No wonder they are in deep stuff!!!

questions about goin thru motor n trans by moondog

ive got 165000 miles in my 01 super crew f150. it would lag a second or two on a stop n go when i press the gas. i changed the fluid, put some lucas stop slip, n i put a programmer that firm the shifts. i dont have the lag ne more but it still slips under heavy accel. n kinda sounds like a belt is slipping as its shifting from 3rd to od under heavy accel. after i put the programmer on after long trips the motor smells like oil bad, and on cool nights i can see smoke coming from the vents on the wiper cowl. i was just wondering if i should tear it all apart or get something new

92 F250 will only go in reverse transmission crisis by roxier

Help, my F250 will only go in reverse. Could this be a sensor or electrical thing, or is it a broken band. it is a 92 and pretty basic electronically. The men in my fam are pretty good with cars but getting them to actually do it is a challenge. I'm really good with vehicles but HATE it but at this point I am desperate just to get this fixed. Any ideas and if it is the band, what is the best way to replace it (ie do I have to yank the whole thing)

TRANS FAULT by casinada
Feb 25, 2009 (10:55 am)

I recently got this message error on my display it reads as TRANS FAULT. Truck works fine, by the way I have a 2004 f150 single cab, shifts smoothly no problems noted as of now. Can anyone tell me if I have to replace the transmission or is this problem can be fixed by your average mechanic? From what I have read in this forum, I am practically screwed and will have to replace tranny. Is there any other quick fix. I have been a Ford guy since junior high never had any problems with any of my stangs until now with this truck.
