    Transmission won’t shift

    I have a 1995 gmc k1500. I had the 4l60e transmission rebuilt less than 1000 miles ago, but it’s sat for a year and a half. When I try to drive the truck the transmission won’t shift, and the gear indicator light comes on and off randomly. I replaced both the a and b shift solenoids because...

When you turn it off it reset and the tranny is good again under normal load. I towed an empty trailer and it happened again...

    Speedometer reading MUCH too high..

    I recently acquired a '96 Silverado z71 4wd and the speedometer is reading at least double what it should. I have replaced the VSS and the instrument panel, but neither made any difference. If I understand correctly, this truck has no DRAC/VSSB module and the VSS signal reports directly to...
