PCM/Transmission slipping

I am working on a 2004 F250 6.0 that had a Edge Platinum Juice module on it. After a competitor replaced the head gasket, they left the module unhooked. I reinstalled and found the module to need repair. The problem is after removing the module and returning everything to stock, the transmission is slipping from 2-3 and 3-4 shifts?

I hate sounding dumb, but what has happened? I have never seen this happen before.

Try disconnecting both batteries to clear what the PCM has learned. The data is skewed from the Edge.

Mark, will it need to relearn shift points etc.? I disconnected for about 15 minutes and seemed to help but was still slipping on 1 shift. I would have thought it would clear up on its own after disconnecting?

It will need to relearn the pressures at each shift. Try warming it up, then do 3 standing starts at light throttle, three at medium throttle, and three at heavy throttle. If that doesn't clean it up something mechanical is bad inside.
