trans help please

hey all
i have a 1995 explorer that has no forward gears. reverse is fine. as we were driving it we slowed to make a turn and when trying to accel it would not respond. the OD light started flashing. drove home in reverse, about 1.5 miles. anybody have a clue where to start? already changed the filter and fluid and no change. it made no noise and gave no hint of the failure twas gonna happen.

thanks bob

time for a rebuild, either losing hydraulic pressure or the bands are worn out... don't skimp get all the revisions done, it will save money in the long run...

All you can do is get someone to do a line pressure test...

How old is the present tranny in mls.. how long ago did you do the filter, how much debris was in the pan??
