So i think i got a transmission problem. Lately i have been getting surges between the speed of 50-60mph. The surging is smooth if that makes sense. I can power thru those speeds and not feel it. But if i try to maintain a speed i start to get the surging. Just tonight iv been paying attention to when it exactly happens. It happens right about 50 when the tq locks up( i think) or shifts what ever one it is.
So i would like to see what you guys think could be the problem also how to fix it.

 

Could be possible the TC is locking and unlocking? RPM staying constant, or changing with the surging? Here is a link from Sun Coast about a cheap easy solution to some problems:

Yea ill have to see what the rpms are doing. That is a interesting article.
Thanks. Let you know what the problem was. I did get in a accident a while ago. And the shop had to take the battery's if i am right. Maybe they didn't tighten them down.

 

Damaged or loose battery cables could be the culprit.

 

Yea im going to check in a lil..I know a while back dusty told me to put aluminum foil around a wire near the intake and alternator. That fixed the problem..I checked that and it was fine.

Ok so put foil around the wire that comes from the alt..Seems to fix the problem. Shall see once i drive it more.

 

Im having same issues with my 99 24v with 209,000 on here. My transmission guy says its either that my truck is smoking my brand new triple disk, or there is some electric noises through the wires caused by a possible premature failure of the alternator. Let me know what you find, im new on here so any advice would be welcomed.

Idk if be the same on ur truck but try aluminum foil like i did.

 

yea most any friend of mine around here has the aluminum foil around theirs even with an after market trans the frequency from the alternator throws off the lock up on the torque converter

 

Welll dusty told me to do it a while back. I did. Come to find out the wrap job i did started to go bad....

 

Get a DTT noise filter and make sure ALL grounds are clean and tight.
Reset APPS if needed as well using a voltmeter.
