That's a funny issue.

That's all the help I can give you since you haven't told us ANYTHING about what's wrong.

Q: Why do clowns prefer clown cars with transmissions rebuilt by a particular reputable place in Augusta, GA?

A: They shift funny....

ok its gottin me more ***** than yall have seen but when I got it back the tranny shop it started to act like it didn't have any fluid in it , it would down shift into gears when I was driving, it stays in like 2nd gear then shifts really damn hard into 3rd gear, another is it would short shift into a really high gear when I would turn into a another road and bog down under 1000rpms and my foot was like half way on the accelerator, one week it acts fine the next week it does those symptoms , I hooked a scanner up to it and it flashed a speed sensor I replaced it and deleted it but that didn't help with anything ....

What scanner did you use, and what was the specific code? Have you scanned it since then?

okay doing that now, I wasn't paying attention what kind I was using I wasn't sure if that was right(being a speed sensor ) so I took it back to weeks transmissions they said it was(a speed sensor ) it didn't change any thing when I replaced it ... would yall think think that its a bad shift relay???

Just cause the scanner said speed sensor doesn't mean it's the sensor. It could be the wiring have you/them checked the wiring ?

I don't know what a shift relay is. Maybe you mean shift solenoid? That is one guess. There are many other parts, too.

I think you need a scan tool that can look at live data to see what is happening.
