2001 mazda b3000 shift correction kit

[Bo70]

I just installed a superior shift correction kit on my truck (5r44e). Everything went as planned and got it all back together with no leaks. Now I have no gears at all. I saw where someone else had the exact same problem and they said that Glacier991 helped them out. He said he took the transmission pan back off and had forgot to hook up the manual valve. That fixed his problem. But I’m not sure what manual valve he is referring to. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I moved your thread to our transmission forum.

Thank you

That's the valve connected to the shift mechanism. So when you move your gear shifter, it's not manually moving anything in the valve body of the transmission.

I found that and got the manual valve connected. Now I’m having all kinds of issues with my transmission. It won’t shift into second gear unless I let off the gas. Sometimes I have reverse and sometimes I don’t. The o/d light is flashing also

Sounds too familiar. See the "5r55s Fail" thread.

I had the springs switched from the Transgo kit... then apparently messed up the spring that controls the 2nd/OD servo, so it was rubbing the control valve. I know that it's a slightly different valve body, but if you didn't change anything else... it's probably in there:

Rookie 5r55s rebuild fail

I've done a few AODEs, but this was my first (and maybe last) 5r55s (06). Transmission whined a bit, but worked fine and shifted well, prior to the OD sprag failing (150k miles). There wasn't a lot of debris, but it did get the surface of the OD Planet gear. On teardown, everything looked...
