So now I have a transmission issue.....
I know I don't have many posts on here, and i usually don't get a response but i really don't know what else to do. I've had problems with my truck since right after i got it. it doesn't make the power it should. i've been trying to get that sorted out but now i have a much bigger problem. No matter what i do it won't shift out of 1st gear. i mean i can shift the leaver and it goes from park to neutral and reverse and all that just fine but if i start down the road, as i accelerate it just never shifts. the only thing i can say for shure thats wrong with it besides the missing muffler is a bad tps but it was like that before this issue came up. this is my only form of transportation. if i don't figure this out soon i'm screwed. PLEASE HELP!!!!!

good to know about the tps. i looked through the fsm troubleshooting guide and it didn't mention anything bout it not shifting out of first. i'll see what happens after i change the tps. thanks for the input guys!

I've come to the conclusion that its the tps. with it unplugged it shifts early so i have to hold it in a lower gear to accelerate reasonably. if i do this the shifts feel fine, and no strange noises or anything. with it plugged in it doesn't shift at all. ordered a tps a minute ago. also noticed a loose wire on the back of the plug for the sensor. anybody know how i would go about replacing this plug? the idl circuit of the tps tested bad so i know i needed one anyways but i'd like to fix this plug when i replace the sensor.
