Here is the link to Forscan if you’re wanting to purchase it. You will need to download the software and then purchase the datalink connector from Amazon. forscan.org/home.html Here is the datalink connector www.obdlink.com/products/obdlink-ex/
I think I need this done on my super duty. 1-2 gear is a very firm shift. Doesn’t happen all the time. Only happens if I’m accelerating slowly. If I’m giving it a bit more pedal it shifts fine. So not sure. Just changed the Trans fluid and added Hot Shot secret shift restore. Not sure if it will fix the issue or not
@chadling4541 yes it did. You do wanna be careful because if the fluid is in bad shape the transmission might be weak and a new valve body might not be the best money spent. If the fluid is in good shape you should be good
@@KenfieldZ3 I did the trans fluid with the hot shot secret shift restore. It helped a bit. I took it to a diesel mechanic and they don’t seem to think it’s riding bad. Maybe I’m assuming it’s going to shift like a 4 cylinder car. I’m going to do the fluid change again with the filter. I still have warranty on my truck. If I still don’t think it shifts well I’ll have my diesel mechanic change the valve body
What valve body manufacture do you recommend? Any to run away from? I’ve been seeing street smart transmission, tier one transmission, both about middle of the pack price wise. I’d rather not pay 800-1000 for revmax/ATS/ect aftermarket if I don’t need too. I don’t beat on it and only pull a horse trailer sometimes.
forscan.org/home.html here is the link for the download then you will find a link for the datalink connector that you can buy on Amazon. Pretty inexpensive and works great for Ford products. Good luck!
So when you go to the link, choose which adapter you want to buy (I personally would choose the one for an IOS application since I don’t have a computer), is that all you need to be able to access forscan and the cpu to be able to download the new valve body info?
I have a new Godzilla/6r140 that I swapped in a obs. The transmission has a buzzing noise when the key is on. I’ve been told that it’s normal for a 6r140. Have y’all ever heard one do that?
@@hrdiesel Great for heavy tow vehicles to remove the hydrostatic thermal regulator which allows trans fluid to always flow through the cooler rather than circulating internally until the fluid temp reaches 190F before being sent to cooler. Not a good idea for trucks that operate in cold conditions though.
If you go on to Forscan website you will be able to buy an extended license for $13 I think it is and they will email you a code and then you will enter that into the program and that should take care of the problem. Good luck!

@@SmashedRabbits I added a link above in the pinned comment
Good video with good info. Keep up the great work!
Thanks!
Awesome job bro.. thanks for the info
Thanks!!

Fingers crossed what you did will work!

Mine is doing the same thing as Mobkinq states above. Sounds like I should probably start by inspecting the fluid and maybe a fluid change?

My 2015 shifts same
Great video bud I appreciate the info

I wish I could give you a good answer on that but I can’t. I have only used the Ford reman and haven’t had issues
Excellent Info
, where can I buy the Ford Scan?, Thank You

@@koreyfairley3988 you will need to download the Forscan program and buy the adapter and then yes you will be able to reprogram the valve body.
what else can cause the transmission to over heat after you redo your transmission and put a new radiator on your 2016-f250
The transmission is cooled via a separate cooler on the frame rail. Also these transmissions are supposed to run around 200 degrees
I have a new Godzilla/6r140 that I swapped in a obs. The transmission has a buzzing noise when the key is on. I’ve been told that it’s normal for a 6r140. Have y’all ever heard one do that?
I will be honest I have not heard that.
Do you replace all the little O rings, and the longer tube looking squishy ones?
Yes, I usually do. My supplier had all those in stock.
Yeah I have to order them online. My local dealer doesn’t have any of them in stock. Aughh such is DIY life 😂
@@Rider-nb5ts I totally get it! Fortunate to have a distributor have a lot of the parts that I need!
Sonnax zip kit most likely would have fixed the issue for 1/10 the price.
I will check that out. Never heard of them until you said something. I appreciate the feedback! Browsing their site now

mine has a hard 5-4 and everything else is perfect could that be the valve body aswell?
Without looking at it I would guess a valve body issue
My 2012 250 is having a hard down shift from 5-4 as well. Did you figure out the problem? If so what was the issue?
Hi
It’s the same process for a 2010 6.4 ?
You know to be honest I don’t hardly ever work on the 6.4 so I could not answer that question
I try to do it with Forscan but it says I need an extended licensed to run this function
What do you recommend on this situation?
If you go on to Forscan website you will be able to buy an extended license for $13 I think it is and they will email you a code and then you will enter that into the program and that should take care of the problem. Good luck!
Thanks for everything my truck is running good now 👍🏽 great information in your video
