Transmission kick down
I just purchased a 97 3500 4x4 with auto trans. When I pull my horse trailer up a hill and need to press accel. pedal near the floor ,the trans down shifts to 1 st gear. This happens at 60 mph or less. The tach goes around 3500 rpms.I have to let off the pedal to make the trans shift to 2nd gear.The trans shift ok at other times.Any ideas?
