need help with swap 4.3-5.3

[ducky]

ok..got it fired up...nelson tune did the trick...for some reason the transmission is in safe mode or whatever...it only gets 2nd and 3rd...it was fine before the swap...and it has a miss...and the check engine light is on....but...i did get to drive it today!!!

how long did you drive it for? I got some wierd stuff the first few times I fired it up and had it running. Let everything re-learn, fixed my sweet pushrod problem, and it still ran kinda bad, then one day it like did a small "choke" where it like backfired or something.. then it started running perfect.

i drove it for about 10 mins....i checked the engine light codes and this is what i got....
p0200...injector

p0740...TCC Solenoid open

P0785...Shift/timing SOL Malf

P1810...MFR Controlled Trans


however the gas gauge started working..haha

[banker099]

ok got the injector problem fixed....now if i could get the trans working right it would be considered a successful swap..in my book anyways.

my trans shifts from 1st to third when i first take off....after that it stays in third....if shifted manually it will go in second but will not go into first or OD no matter what...the codes i pulled are listed in the post above, they are the three bottom codes listed above....anybody have any idea???

it worked perfect before the swap

[ducky]

you plug everything in right?

[banker099]

i think so...ive got under it 3 times and checked and everything looks right

[ducky]

hmmmmmmmmm maybe something in the tune? you got your tune from NP right? call them up and ask up there see what they say

[banker099]

yeah i called him and hes looking at it he is suppossed to let me know something today

[banker099]

ok...just left the transmission shop and they said it was the main hot wire to the trans, he said it wasnt getting power, so i guess ill go hook a wire up to it and see if that works

[banker099]

checked the hot wire and it was good....any ideas?....ground maybe is the trans grounded separately, should i add a ground to the front of the trans/ back of engine or should i put it somewhere else.....i dont know what to do next.
