Having problems with newly rebuilt tranny

I recently got my tranny rebuilt in my 2001 dodge 3500. Since it was rebuilt it kicks in and out of OD at about 75 mph and if I have a trailer on it about 60. I, nor any mechanic can figure out what goin on with the truck. The tranny shop built the tranny 3 times and even put a different tranny in it trying to get it to stop. I have replace the 400 freakin dollar TPS and it didnt help. Flushed the tranny lines and replaced the speed sensor. I am at a loss and the 10 mechanics that have looked at it are at a loss also. Has anyone had this happen to their truck and did you get it fixed?????

Haven't had that exact problem, had more of an issue around 50 mph. But anyway, i have read some posts about a poor ground being the problem, have also heard that the dealer has a diagram and a setup to better ground everything to stop the issue you are describing.
Having said that i don't remember where i read it, but i do remember that the post claimed the dealership wouldn't release the diagram for the fix but would do the work for about $400 if i remember correctly.
Hope this helps get your truck fixed.

hah!! tranny shifting perfect now. changing the output sensor on the driver side of the tail worked. scanner code was P-0720. NOTE: when i pulled the wire, some tranny fluid residue was present inside the plug housing and on the prongs!! hmmm... could the inner plastic nipple have melted or something, allowing tranny fluid to seep through? it seemed pretty disfigured when i removed the sensor. also, someone on here said to expect a little tranny fluid to come out... LOL, thats a laugh. over a quart gushed out when i unscrewed the sensor, hahah. okay my first time doing it, so now i know later...

Trouble code 1762 on a 2001 dodge 3500 Diesel Engine

Diagnostic trouble code reads 1762. My Haynes Repair Manual book doesn't say what to do with this diagnostic trouble code. The scaner say it something to do with the transmission. Can anyone help me?

Don't quote me on this but if my memory serves me correct that code is for low line pressure. Could be the solenoid on the bottom of the valve body (the one that hangs down into the pan or it's related sensor? Get it looked at. Dartboard diagnostics get expensive and may not fix your problem. My truck threw that code and it turned out to be the 2nd gear shift solenoid. Unfortunately that solenoid that failed on mine is combined with the 1st gear shift solenoid and shares a common wire harness. $400 ouch! Like I said that code can mean several different posible faulty parts so get it looked at and isolate your exact bad part or parts.
Cheers, Casey

Sometimes when I put it in reverse there is a loud growling noise, I can sometimes put it then into neutral and back into reverse and it will stop. Why is this? How can I correct it?
