A few things might be wrong with JP's rig,this is without knowing the year/make/model and mileage so it's just guessing..#1 could be he just needed tans fluid,without enough the trans won't shift..#2 when the trans controller sees a problem it thinks could cause potential damage to the trans it will shut off the relay that powers the shift solenoid pack..#3 shift linkage broke or came undone,#4 The transmission oil pump quit building pressure needed to engage the clutch packs in the transmission which is pretty much the number 1 problem.#5 I would check the color and smell of the fluid,if it ain't red/pink,which indicates AOK as far as nothing is burnt up and the level.If it's smells burnt,yellow or brown.not good.#6 could be torque converter also.What ever the case,there should be codes that will help in finding the problem.Easiest to eliminate is checking fluid level and color/smell.

Thanks to everyone wondering if I made it ! Yes I made it to work only half an hour late. Sat for a while and it started working , still slips but got me here. I have a appointment to get it fixed Monday , I just hope it works till then. Estimated repair cost is $300, better than a new tranny but not in the budget. Thanks everyone again.
Ding its a 08 liberty. I think its the trans-controler.

3- That sucks GMO, been there done that for sure. I feel lucky that I have my TENS unit now, helps a lot with the pain. Wife and daughter wanted to know what it feels like, I run it at the level of 7, at the one or just turned on they both all but about jumped out of there skins.
#2. Oh no. Not good. How'd you do that? Hopefully the pain will go away soon. I hate being in pain. Takes the little energy I have away.

glad it's not a new or have to be rebuilt rebuilt.Too bad you can't do the work yourself.Those controllers are about 50-60 bucks.If you knew how you could reset the controller by unplugging it to reset the puter.Slippage is another problem though,belt tightening most likely.Also If I remember correctly,there was a recall on them,2008,don't remember when.

Thanks Ding , I'll check out the recall, might save me some $ !
@ Glasmanoak, bananas are good for that like GMG said. They have potassium, low potassium levels can cause cramps. Wifey has to take potassium pills to help hers!

Glad you got your car going, jpf.
Yep, bananas are a good source of potassium, but this is precisely why I suggested the supplements. I would have to eat a bushel of bananas to help the leg cramps when I get them. The other thing to consider is that the low potassium is usually caused by dehydration--so it's important to stay hydrated (a real problem for me since coffee and Diet Coke are 99% of my fluid intake--and they're both dehydrating).
