Continuous Tranny problems '02 2500 diesel

I have an '02 2500 diesel that is being a edit! Having some issues with my tranny that Dodge doesn't even seem to know what to do about

. I took it in 3 different times for a stutter shift between drive and ovedrive( between 45-50 MPHs). Seems like the OD wants to engage but has a difficult time doing so. If I Romp on the gas pedal it shifts fine thru all gears. However if I am going steadily at 45 MPHs and lightly increase the pedal pressure it wants to hesitate when the OD finally kicks in. I have had the TC replaced, lock up silinoid replaced and the EPS replaced within the last 2500 miles. The TC helped for a bit but now , same problem.

Anyone have any suggestions?

A COMMON FIX FOR THE SYMPTOMS YOU ARE DESCRIBING IS CLEANING ALL YOUR BATTERY CONNECTIONS AND ANY ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS THAT GO TO OR FROM THE TRANNY I REALLY THINK THATS GOING TO BE YOUR PROBLEM

Thanks all

Well I appreciate the help. I guess I will try to figure something out with the batteries. Confused at why that would be an issue but I guess it couldn't hurt. I checked the volts on both batteries and they both read at 12.58. Terminals still look clean but like I said its worth a shot. Thanks again. Any other advice if that doesn't work?

I had a similar problem, It turned out the cable that went from the tps to the trany had stretched and caused the trouble. Two dealers and one trany shop couldn't fix it. The cable is supposed to have no play at idle!

Now I have too much power(HP) for my trany? The bomb thing is a slippery slope! Be careful!!!!
