Transmission Nightmare

I own a 2000 Ford F-!50 4 x 4 I basically trashed my 470R so I had it rebuilt new everything according to the person who did the work. Re install transmission 1st , 2nd , reverse all work smooth (no slipping) but when I try to accelerate to over 35mph the transmission is un responsive then the truck dies and I have to stop put it in park to restart it Here's what I know no blown fuses,all plugs connected correctly to transmission harness, proper amount of transmission fluid , have a reader code for chk engine was read and I erased it Chk engine light is no longer on the truck has a Hypertech chip I'm beside myself oh and the overdrive light isnt working any suggestions besides take it back to the mechanic Thanks

Move past the frustration, take it back to the mechanic asap,
If you fiddle with it , it might void the warranty.
Good luck.

Transmission nightmare

Thanks for the advice Mickey I would follow your advise if I could get ahold of the mechanic! all I'm looking for is a direction to follow weather it be solinoid,electrical, related to the installation of a shift kit interfearing with the hypertech chip basically why does 3rd gear and overdrive not work + why does the truck die at the point it is supposed to shift. Update to original post a Natpro AODE/470W shift kit was installed. I was given the old parts planetary gear etc... Thanks

I don't know anything about rebuilding a transmission, I would be concerned trying to fix/find someone else's problem.

Just saying, if you change/alter anything done by someone you paid good money to fix you're giving them wiggle room to say they're not at fault.

THank you for your comments Mickey, I have not done anything to the transmission.,as far as wiggle room he has none. I try to gather as much information as I can before I seek restitution Im hoping it might be some sort of electrical problem or a computer input problem but I don't know. Thanks
