I just had some trouble today in this department i believe. My truck would not shift into any gears so i reved the engine up a little and it slamed into the gear i had it in. Then as i go to drive away the truck dies. I start it back up and it dies again. So i put it in park and it looses all power. I get out and see that one of the positive wires ends on my drivers side battery is glowing red and loose. So i tighten it down and the truck did good on the way home. Im hoping this was all the trans problem was, was a loose positive wire. Is that a possibility? Also i didnt do this procedure you posted above, what would happen if this isnt done? Thanks
