Auto Tranny Problem please help.!!!

I cannot post in the drivetrain forums so I guess i'll post it here.

I have a 97 spyder gst auto and it just started slipping OD, But! if i disconect the battery or switch the tcu i'll have OD again until it decides to slip again do you goys think it's an end clutch issue or electrical. also i just took out the valve body cause one of the solenoid was tiking really loud when in D,R,1or2 but would stop while at nutral or park. It is the solenoid that sits alone away from the other 3 that are thogether. I cheked for the same noise in my friends gst and as I put it in D i heard the noise for a milisecond but then after that i never heard it again I tried turning of the car and on but the noise was never heard again in his car. and on mine if i have the key on ignition but the car not on and put it in D,R,1,or 2 you can hear the solinoid sound.

Thanks for ## time.

So your saying it'll go into OD then come out, and you can't get it back into OD until you unhook the battery?

You answered one of your own questions. It's electrical because your unhooking your battery reseting the tcu so you'll have OD again. If it's stuck in third gear your in limp mode.

why is it going into limp mode? and how do I fix this? I was getting a code wich i believe was manufacturer transmision faliure or something like that.
