It's in a Failsafe mode! (electrical problem) Take it to a tranny shop tell em if they can hook it up to a computer for the tranny and hopefully they'll tell you the problem....

The transmission for the 1996 Chevy 3500 could be jumping from overdrive for several reasons. The transmission could have a vacuum or electrical problem causing it to come out of overdrive. Or, there could be an internal valve problem causing this to happen.
Look at getting a new transmission
Mainly because the C6 transmission only has 3 gears and no overdrive.
bad transmission
A 1991 Ford Escort will not shift into overdrive if the overdrive switch has been turned off or the transmission is failing. A mechanic or local dealership can diagnose and repair both issues.
Is there a button to activate the overdrive on the transmission. If the button is activated and not in overdrive mode the car will never shift into 4th gear.
its basically the same thing. an automatic tranny wont go in Overdrive until youre going at a generally constant speed. the same is true with a manual transmission- while driving on average roads (40-55 mph) you will not shift into the final gear until you are going at a constant speed. Overdrive is a gear that turns the vehicle driveshaft faster than the engine and is used to improve fuel mileage (and also lower CO2 emissions). Typically 5 or greater in a manual or 4th gear or greater in an automatic is overdrive but there are exceptions. Because of CAFE (fuel economy standards) virtually all cars and small trucks have come factory with ovedrive since 1981.
need more info.year,model.
I had the same problem with my '92 camaro 3.1 V6. Take your car to a transmission specialist, and he can throw a diagnostic pad on it. On mine, my entire transmission and torque converter were fried. Cost me $1000.
Low on fluid. Linkage mis adjusted or broken. Internal parts malfunctioning.
Sounds like the magnets!
