I have a 98 ford explorer 4.0 sohc just redid the engine runs great then tranny problems

There's a part under the steering column called the shift interlock solenoid. This part releases when you step on the brake pedal. Make sure that the brake lights are turning on when you step on the brake pedal. This solenoid makes a light click sound when it activates. You could test the wiring going to the solenoid with a test light.
 






It just seemed funny that as many times I used the ramps and did the tranny it locks up and I do have brake lights I"ll check the solenoid shortly are the as many wires as the 2000 tread shows withe same readings
