Ok quick rundown of my truck. 250k miles. Motor was fully rebuilt about 2 yrs ago. Transmission was fully rebuilt by a local known and trusted transmission shop about 8 months ago.
The issue I'm having is it keeps going into limp mode and throwing the governor pressure solenoid check engine light. Well this first happened about 9000 miles after my transmission rebuild. Took it back to trans shop and they said it could have been a bad (new) solenoid so they replaced with a new solenoid. Drove it for about 3 days and same thing, limp mode and gov. pressure solenoid check engine light. Took it back to trans shop and they said everything in the trans looked good, clean fluid, no metal shavings, solenoid test out good, so after some more testing on wires they said it could be a bad 02 sensor throwing the code cause it's wired together somehow (stupid dodge). So he replaced the 02 sensor that he said (I think) read a slightly lower voltage. I picked up the truck drove it for 3 solid weeks, shifted fine, nothing out of ordinary, until it did it again, same thing. Have any of you had this happen on your truck? Any possible things to check or try?? This has even got my trans shop scratching their head cause it's so intermittent. It's currently at the shop and he said he was going to check into wiring the solenoid ground seperate instead of with the 02 sensor.
Any help is greatly appreciated
