Default Re: Limp Mode... Bad Speed Sensor?

The intervals of limp mode began to start happening more frequently, sometimes to the point where I couldn't even get a few miles down the road and it would cave in on me. Well, now she is stuck in limp mode and won't come out. Auto stick won't work either. I am getting a check engine light but I haven't pulled the code yet. I've been reading a lot of the threads here and a lot of you have said TCM or the conductor plate/ speed sensor. Does anyone have any direct advice on what this issue truly is, and where I might find the parts to order so I can get my baby fixed and back on the road where she belongs.
A solenoid on the valve plate stuck on my 300, which has the same basic transmission and caused this, it finally went 100% and I had to drive 40 kil. in limp mode to get it fixed.
The valve plate and electrical plate are fixed together and make up the assembly.
