Replaced a shift solenoid on my 2000 jimmy 4l60e 4x4 and now it wont accelerate from a stop in drive. Manually put it in first and no problems. Drop it in drive around 10 mph and no problems after that. Did I get a bad solenoid?
No. I just figured I should do maintenance on it due to miles. Got the pan off and the solenoid was hanging down. I dont know which one it was just knew what it looked like. Matched it to the new one to make sure it was right
Welcome to the forum! My first question would be did it have the same issue before replacement? Also which solenoid A or B?

Did you have some difficulty getting the rear of the pan down past the crossmember? Very easy to break shift solenoids if you are not careful.
in the picture solenoid A&B did you have any of the valves out of VB?
