trans prob

trans quit pulling. I was driving down a dirt road and slowed down for a ditch and when I pushed the gas back down it just reved up and wouldn't pull. So what I have is my truck will go only in second. Not even reverse. In reverse and drive when i rev it up it will rock slightly but not move. After I get the truck rolling I can put it in drive and third gear will work but as soon as I stop I have to put it in second again. Think my speed sensor might be goin out because sometimes my speedometer will bounce and over drive light will flash. Don't know if that will matter, wanted to let yall know in case it did. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thinking it might be an electrical problem??

It may be the Transmission Control Module (TCM).

It's not electronic, and it's not the trans control module. It either is REALLY low on fluid, or more likely, something mechanical broke inside the trans.

Fluid checked out good. Dang, done had this out once cause I blew the front pump. Pretty heavy. Guess i'll call around tomorrow and see if I can find someone to work on it. Thanks for the help so far.
