Incorrect Gear Ratio

Check these first

• Worn clutches or bands from slipping
• Low or burnt transmission fluid
• Stuck or faulty shift solenoid
• Failing torque converter
• Internal transmission damage

What to do next

1. Check transmission fluid level, color, and smell first
2. Watch commanded vs actual gear and gear ratios on a scan tool
3. Confirm the transmission slips or flares on a test drive
4. Test solenoids and pressures with a scan tool
5. Rebuild or replace the transmission if internal failure is confirmed
