Yep electronic incompatibility, also probably getting feedback into the engine control module. Get that transmission out of there before you fry more electronics. You must have numbers matching transmissions to make a swap like that. If you can’t find a number matching then you will have to get your stock transmission overhauled.

    I have replaced the thermostat, fan clutch, and water pump and it still is running hot. A guy at AutoZone did a test that says I have and exhaust leak. Does this mean I have a blown head gasket?
