Asked by Jason Jun 11, 2018 at 03:40 PM about the 1998 Dodge RAM 1500 Laramie SLT Club Cab RWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

If I start out to fast, the truck will not get out of 2nd. I have to start out very slow
and allow it to catch 3rd before I can really get going down the road. I have
changed the Governor Pressure Sensor, TCC Solenoid, and Output speed
sensor, I have changed the fluid and screen twice. Any ideas what could be
causing this ?
