Hello, my 1999 ram 1500 has a tranny issue, I took it on the freeway (normal not crazy driving lol) drove just fine. When I got off the freeway, I stopped for a stopsign and when I gave it gas I noticed it started feeling really heavy and sluggish, probably started in 2nd or 3rd gear. I floored it to see if it would downshift, but it remained in whatever gear it was in. I got it home (with that problem persisting) checked the fluid (warmed up, in neutral) and it was fine. I shut off the truck, Started it back up and low and behold it shifted just the way it should! I did some research and im thinking governor pressure sensor/solenoid could be bad? All the gears are strong and work well. This is the first time its ever done this to me. Also, my speedometer doesnt work until I hit 20mph, could this have something to do with the problem? The speedometer issue has been going on for quite some time so I dont see how it could effect things now. Please help, im going on a 300 mile rd trip in a week!! Thanks!
