96 taurus shifts out of 1st @3200 then gos to2nd only to gos back

Most likely a solenoid on the valve body. It is just a coil that when energized pulls in metal rods, some push. When most coils start breaking down, they only act up when hot. Could also be the valves themselves. Also a bad seal. Ask friends for a good transmission shop. Some one that won't tell you a rebuild and only change a valve solenoid.

When was the last time you had the transmission fluid changed? Most problems with shifting are down to low TF levels or TF that hasn't been changed in a long time. TF eventually loses it's ability to provide proper lubrication due to overheating in the gear box. The fluid breaks down. Replace that first and if the problem persists, then a rebuild is likely.

could be vss vehicle speed sensor if it was an all of a sudden problem

check your vehicle speed sensor

first two things are check fluid,change filter.next is more expense.good luck

change trans fluid and filter. trash in the fluid,once it warms up, the trash moves, when it cools down the trash settles back in causing it to shift improperly

Your problem could be the motor mounts. To check have your helper shift from drive to reverse with the engine at idle.

It sounds like your input clutch seals are rolling. Is the check engine light on. It could also be the pressure control solenoid could be causing the problem aswell

you need a governer pressure sensor soleniod. sorry you canceled the chat. but put this in. these have to match on scanner reading

Where is this wire? is it at the transmission range selector switch on top of the trans where the shift cable connects?
