Little update, now that it has gotten cold, in the mid 30 I have noticed in the morning when I start it up and drive off second grabs a lot better and slips alot less ,until the engine and trans warm up then it goes back to slipping ,and it’s still not shifting on it’s own from 1 to 2.

Probably a sticky valve body or 1-2 shift accumulator. The accumulator was redisigned in I think 98 that seals better.

I replaced the entire valve body and nothing changed, gonna try to find a used wiring harness next. If that doesn’t work I’m lost.

Ok so an update, my clutches are definitely shot. I found a trans out of a 98 gt with 80k miles. I was wondering would I be able to just swap it in plug and play, or are there any wiring differences between 96 and 98 4r70w in the mustangs?
