Transmission Trouble

I have a 92 Lazy Daze with a 454 engine and a 4L80 transmission
and when I took it for a drive last week, the transmission would
not shift out of low gear.
I took it to a transmission shop and they checked it and said the transmission is ok and that this is an electrical problem.
Has anybody ever had this problem with a 4L80? Its seems like shops that do electrical troubles shooting are few and far between.
Would appreciate any help.

Thanks, JOE
  • Many transmissions have solenoids and electrical components. If a transmission shop can not diagnosis the electrical part run away fast.
  • have you checked the fuse for the transmission?
    It is hot in run position which could also mean an ignition switch issue.
