AOD-E Problems, I Beg thee for help.
I had to rock my truck out of the snow a few weeks ago, and lost reverse (when in reverse, motor will be under load, but truck wont move), then later lost Overdrive/4th, parked it for a while, then had to move it, now in Park/Neutral, D-2-1 go forward, the transfer case won't go into 4x4.
When driving on the road, it doesn't slip, and I've heard of loose Valve body bolts, not sure of that personally, but I know almost nothing about them.
I need this back up and running ASAP, any help will be appreciated.

What year is the truck, what size (1/2,3/4-1ton?)
Because the AOD-E wasn't used in trucks...Was only in the cars...From 1992+
However, you COULD have an AOD...Which had the mechanical linkage, etc....

The AODE was used in F-series trucks in 1993 and 1994 according to my Ford Service Manual. The trucks used the wide-ratio gear set version so it was referred to as the AODE-W. The cars used a non-wide gear ration version. For the most part the AODE-W was rebadged as the 4R70W in 1995. It's the same transmssion as the AODE as far as I am know.
And unless this info I picked up was wrong;
c6----E4OD
AOD---4R70W
Original transmissions-------Newer versions
Idk...Seems pretty accurate...

Items# 7 and 8 in the commentary section.

The AOD-E as used in cars had a different size output shaft and tail housing then the 4R70W that they started putting in trucks in 1993. As said above the ratio for the gears was different also. I am sure other parts inside were different also.
You can use the same trouble shooting guide for both, just the parts are little different.
They have the same logic inside as far as how it is put together and operates.
To the OP:
The transmission needs to be disassembled and all the bad parts replaced.
If you need videos of how to do this just email me and I will send them to you.

I'm not near the truck to get the Trans Code at this moment, but will as soon as I get home.
I was hoping the transmission wasn't that far gone, but I guess the truth needs to be heard when it's least wanted.
I will gather all the info requested when I get home, and post them here for you all.
I was told it was an AOD-E by Buzzs' transmission shop in Cheyenne, so I was just going by what he told me, I know NOTHING about automatic transmission aside from "put it in 'D' and go"

This is just more misinformation that makes differentiating between all of Fords various transmissions more confusing. The AODE is a real transmission but it only ever appeared in small cars and the only thing differentiating it from the all mechanical AOD is an electrically locking torque converter. The 4R70W used in these trucks has totally different internals which are completely computer controlled so despite the case similarities between all these slushboxes they are not the "same" transmissions.
