I think the reason is one of two things. One could be that you are losing pressure in the direct pressure area in the 4th gear. Or you could be losing pressure when the fluid gets warm or hot. Either way, looks like it's going to be a trip to the transmission shop.

what if Im not getting battery voltage to my od switch,,would this mean its not getting circuit to make the transition to 4th gear?

i think it might be electrical........no self diag works.....light just stays on...no blinking....

Have u heard of this prob before?
