tow/haul light flashing

I have a Suncoast trans with billet input shaft and stage 2 torque converter less the a year old. The trans is not shifting into overdrive. it runs through the gears normally but not into high gear. trans temp. is 150* out side temp is 70* checked the fluid it is normal and clean. any help would be great.

If it doesn't have overdrive it doesn't have 2nd gear either since 2nd is 1st and overdrive together. What is the code from the tow/haul flash?

If there was a code set it will still be there. Try running down to autozone and see if they have something that will scan the TCM for codes. Don't do anything until you get the code.

would the suncoast set codes like the stock torqshift and set the tow/haul light to blink when a code was set?

It may be built by Suncoast but it's still controlled by the original TCM. All the DTCs should report the same as a stock unit.
