1995 suburban transmission problems

On my 1995 GMC suburban K1500 I am having a problem with my transmission shifting into 1st or into overdrive. I had the transmission rebuilt and about 40 days later the problem started if you put the truck into drive it will stay in 3rd unless you shift it down into 2nd the tranny shop says it's the computer but i have replaced it with 5 compatible computers and nothing has fixed the problem it even made it worst in some cases losing speed and tac is there anything else that could be causing the problem besides the computer

SOURCE: 1996 gmc suburban transmission shift problem

96 gm trucks had a proble with third gear burning out because of a ground issue from pcm..there was a bulletin for adding a new ground for third gear control circuit...aftermarket trans shops do not remember this problem and it is often overlooked..take to local dealership and you should be able to get problem resolved

SOURCE: 4l60e no forward or reverse gears operating

It sounds like your torque converter or the pump is broken.

SOURCE: 1992 GMC Suburban not shifting into OD, Transmission Modulator?

The shift down linkage on the carburetor below the gas pedal cable might need to be adjusted to increase the hydraulic pressure on the internal clutch plates in the transmission it shows you how to do that in a car manual.

My 2002 Chevy Silverado had the same problem and the overdrive part of the transmission was out so I had to get a new transmission.

I have a 1990 GMC Suburban. The transmission is slipping. I still have reverse, 1st, and can manually shift into second. No 3rd or overdrive... it just slips. What should I look for?

is it a 4l80e electronic shift transmission....it may be an issue with the solenoid pack...you can take it to someone who has a scanner tool for the trans...if it is indeed a 4l80e

I have a 93 Chevy Suburban 1500 and the Transmission won't shift into any gear. I have an 1983 Chevy Suburban Transmission that is still good. Can I use the 83 Transmission in my 93 Suburban?

Not without a little adapting. The 1993 has a 4l60e which is electronically controlled and has shift solenoids. If the 83 is an overdrive it is a 700r4 which is the same trans but not electronic. If you put it in the speedo wont work and you will need to install a T.V. cable so the transmission will shift. The 93 won't go forward or backwards?

91 gmc shifts in and out of overdive

I had an 89 Suburban that started doing the same thing. Change the fluid/filter and add a quart of Lucas Transmission Fix. See how that does. Ultimately, you are going to have to rebuild or replace the transmission as the problem will only get worse in the end. Mine finally went down completely and cost me about $2700 to rebuild.
