asked by on March 09, 2017

Had my transmission serviced it is a 47re. Had governor and lockup solenoid changed filter and fluid and bands adjusted. It shifted perfect. The next morning started to drive truck transmission shifted into one gear and that's it. I turned key switch on and pushed down on accelerator and back up and started truck shifted fine. Until the next morning the same thing. Had mechanic reset codes. And problem came back.
