Hi there i was wondering, i just swapped a 99 intrepid 2.7 with a 98 intrepid 2.7, 99 was blown, i took the tranny with it, the plug by the tranny dipstick was different from the 98 to the 99, so i replaced the plug, all the wires are at the same place and the same color. now, the dash shift indicators are all lit up and the tranny does not shift gears, it goes in reverse, forward but seems like its stuck in second and wont shift up or down, even manual shifting does not work, i swapped the tcm and the ecm to match the engine not the car, same as original computer, parn neutral switch works casue i got reverse lights and it will not start in gears only parn and neutral... any ideas? thank you

Have you tied switching the plug near the dipstick back to the one that was in the trans?

Ya, the whole reason i switched the plug is cause its not the same, one is a round pin type and the other is a flat blade type...

That is where the problem lies. Are wire colors the same or different? Are there the same number of wires?
