Re: turbo 400 w/brake locking up in 3rd

Yeah if it 'was' working correctly, and it's not activating the solenoid, you have internal damage. Knocked a tooth off a sun gear or something. Jakeshoe is a member here and a trans genius. He could probably tell you exactly 'what' item is most suspect. But in the end, it needs 'fixin'.
I'd pull the pan to make sure all of the valves are captured as they should be (have seen one of the retaining pins break and the valve get out of place,, really made a mess out of the fluid flowing where it should) But in the end,, if you don't see any obvious problem in the pan,, the trans needs to come out and on a bench.

I just did my taxes and reviewed my SS statement. Thanks to the current administration it looks like I will only have to work till noon on the day of my funeral.
