Transmission help !!

[Smokin 6.0]

Got a 05 ccsb F350 that I seem to have lost 5th/overdrive. Truck runs fine and shifts through all 4 others just fine. Is there a chance that the tranny is fine just lost a solenoid ? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Does the tow/haul light work? Is it flashing?

Download ForScan Lite to your phone.
Get an OBDII ELM327 adapter (WiFi for Apple or BlueTooth for Android). I like BAFX brand.
Read the transmission codes.
Post here.
Get the help you need.

That means you have transmission codes stored, but no engine codes.

Can I get them with just a DTC scanner ?

 

[Mark Kovalsky]

If it is one that has Ford software to read transmission codes. Cheap ones do not have the right software.

FORScan is free.

Unless you want the add-free version (or at least that was the case when I downloaded it)

No. A decent scan tool will do the trick. I’m most familiar with Snap On and any of theirs would be able to read what you need to know.

He got it figured out I think he said it was a solenoid
