After battery disconnect what needs reprogram - 2001 town and country

Besides the normal stuff, like the radio stations preset and the clock, the only thing that has to be reprogramed on these vans is the shifting, somtimes it looses its shift points, you will need to reconnect the battery and then drive the van and you will see if it doesnt shift gears like it used to, it may take longer to shift, to correct this problem dissconnect battery for 10min, then connect it back and start the van and place the shifter all the way down to low, slowly roll out to road and take off you will shift the gears your self, note that the way you shift is the way its programed, so you will take off and at about 15mph you will shift to 2 and then i think at 30mph 3 and so on till you get to drive, good day.

Overdrive not shifting correctly

Not sure on yours but on my vehicle, it doesn't shift up until engine reaches a certain temerature, and right now in the winter weather it takes a little longer. On mine it's normal.

Transmission

You probably need to have linkages at transmission lubricated. There is one that controls throttle valve which tends to seize up on a regular basis. When it starts to seize, you will notice it staying in lower gear longer before it shifts up, and sometimes it will shift down hard when slowing down to stop.
