so you think the EPC pressure is O.K. then. How would we know if it is the processor which I am assuming by that you mean the computer? I am at my wits end with this one.- jayreb250

trans wont shift from 1st to 2nd or 3rd to 4th
This thing has a mind of its own!!! I have not really done anything that should have made it change, but it is acting a little different(better). It will shift into Drive with no problems now, but will sometimes feel like it has droped back into (N) while driving, I have to shift it into 2 or N...- jayreb250

trans wont shift from 1st to 2nd or 3rd to 4th
I am getting new servo's today, I am just grasping at straws but if the servos are hardened is it possable that they are not appling becuase of the hard seals. What else should I be looking at if its not the servo or the pump? If I reassembled the trans correctly and the only problem before the...- jayreb250

I don't know for sure about the intermediate servo after I removed the snap ring I was tapping on the cover to get it lose and it popped out so not sure if it was sealed. the overdrive servo was in the cover when I removed it. the servo's where not soft at all more like hard plastic. I looked...- jayreb250

the servo that has the chipped seal is the intermediate servo... so if its leaking it would cause it to not go into 2ND gear, or 4TH, or both. if 2nd why are we not getting 4th and if 4th why are we not getting 2nd?- jayreb250

Servo seal to case. Is that seal supposed to be hard plastic fealing or is it supposed to be soft rubber? as for the metal I cleaned the trans case pretty good and I cleaned all the parts, I supose that it could be left over maybe still inside the TC didn't clean that(I hope). I need to go look...- jayreb250

trans wont shift from 1st to 2nd or 3rd to 4th
I think I do have the servos backwards so I will try that first and see what happens then if it does work I will have to decide wheather or not to pull it back out to check the pump. If its not set correctly will it do any damage or just not work right?- jayreb250

trans wont shift from 1st to 2nd or 3rd to 4th
I have a 95 exploerer 4R55E trans that will not shift from 1st to second, if driving you can kinda rev it up to 3000 rpms and let off the gas and then it will shift to 3rd but wont shift from 3rd to 4th. I rebuilt the trans because of the 1st-2nd problem also had a broken intermediate band. I...- jayreb250
