I think you're missing some critical information here....like what year,
make, model, and engine the original vehicle was.....

Did you plug the vehicle speed sensor back up? Not sure but just A idea. Is
the VSS the same? I think a 99 is looking for a 4K VSS signal but I don't
know what the output is on a 06. Might want to swap in the VSS from your
original tranny. My opinion is either a wrong VSS, bad VSS or maybe you
stretched and broke the wires to the VSS.

Keep in mind I am not fortunate enough to be looking at factory manuals.
Pulling it off the top of my head. There could be other problems. Have it
scanned, find out if there is a VSS signal. On a 700R4 both mechanical and
optical VSS's were in the T-case. I THINK they were moved to the tranny body
just in front of the T-case/tailshaft flange on the E models. If the VSS
output is diffrent, IF, it won't change with a sensor change, you have to
swap the reluctor ring or the buffer. I may be way off but its something to
look at.

Thanks for all the reply's. We found a wire up near the bell housing
that had came apart, must have hit it when putting the dipstick back
in.
Thanks again.
