Question Help Trans solenoid code

Had my tansmission recently rebuilt 800 miles and sine the solenoid code has been thrown repeatedly, on third solenoid and the code (causes car to go into limp mode) no longer resets after turning the car off then on (how I got it out of limp mode) shop says no mechanical issues, nothing feels wrong aside limp mode, any ideas?? It's getting annoying, electrical? Computer issue?

What code was it? There are many switches/solenoids on the trans. What exactly is the third one youre talking about?

Try cleaning or replace the shift solenoids, screen and pressure switches see if that resolves your issue.

P1739?
Sounds like third clutch pressure switch.

Basic troubleshooting may help. Does that shop work on many TL's? Often times things get left loose.

Does D5 flash? Any other indication on the dash?

Depends on if the switch is bad. I would check the wiring.

the shop needs to look into the wiring and see if they did any damage to it or if a connector isnt in all the way.
