I know there at least a couple of threads on the forum about how to go about fixing or replacing the connector, there's also some YouTube videos on trying to fix the connector, some clean the connector and then carefully drill and replace any bad pins with small drill bits or wire.

Thanks for the info. I know the connector youre talking about. Ive been looking online at a bunch of used trans for sale in case Ill need to do a swap and see it clearly. Ill pull the plug and put some die electric grease in there to protect it from water in the future.
Heres a bit of an update. I took my truck into the shop in hopes they could diagnose exactly what the issue was and they did a complete reset of the computer so it would need to relearn the conditions etc. Well, turns out the valve body rebuild did the trick. Its running great now! Even the converter shutter is a lot less. Hope this helps someone who's experiencing the same issues cause the full VB rebuild is not expensive at all and not hard either. Just be sure to reset the computer after somewhere that has that type of scanner (auto zone scanners are not the same and wont work the same).
