It doesn't slip in any gear, it's just won't shift on it's own to 2nd gear. You have to let the rpm's drop below 2000 and it will then shift. after that it will shift from 2nd to third and over drive just fine. The passing gear work ok aswell. Any ideas? It is a 1999 Dodge Ram 3500 2wd
Have someone scan the transmission for bad shift sensors.
First and second: the first to go. Have the filter and fluid changed. the filter is clogging.
I am haveing the same issue with my 01 dodge 2500 diesel 2wd. I was told the ground to the ecm was not good enough from the factory. the ecm is located on the pass side of the fire wall on the engine bay side. you will see a ground. make another wire and connect it to the ecm.(make sure you put the otherone back as well) the other end will go straight to the ground on the battery. try that.

I was on my way to work when all of a sudden my engine makes a loud off pitch idling noise driving down the highway 70mph that's when it dropped down into first but I lost 2nd gear When the rpm hit up to 45mph to shift into 2nd it went into neutral help
