My son chased lockup problems for months on his 95. Tranny was rebuilt and new tq converter installed but still the problem remained. He put in three different TPS's with no luck. He could swap my stock 96 one in and it seemed to cure it. Later the problem returned and intensified (would lock and unlock, shudder, at 70 kmh and unlock intermittently at highway speeds after warming up). He then had Dodge reprogram the computer as per the TSB. This fixed the 70 kmh problem but not the random unlocks. He finally traced the TPS wires back to the computer and wired the circuit in parallel. This remedied the random problem. Plenty of headaches for just a couple of bad wires and a computer reprogram.
