5R55E No reverse
BrooklynBay, my 97 Ranger 4x4 with 202K miles and fairly fresh rebuild on tranny (done by me, maybe not so good?) lost reverse while dumping trash at the dump. On the five mile drive back, it didn't want to shift correctly, (flaring), and then the check engine light came on. Like a fool I just pulled the tranny before getting the codes since I figured there was something really wrong. I talked to a guy at the local dun-right transmission shop and he said my reverse solenoid probably messed up and showed me a reamer kit that was labeled 55W. He said their rebuild job would be around $2,500 that would go through everything, too rich for me.
I have never seen any thread on reaming and bushing the reverse solenoid. Any idea what might be wrong?
