Tranny swap, throwing new code for TC??

I just completed swapping out the 4l60e with another 4l60e in my 97. The moment I hooked the battery back up it threw a code. Scanned the car and it shows the code as: DTC P1860 TCC PWM Solenoid Circuit Electrical.

I am at a loss as to what exactly that means or how I go about checking to see what is causing it. More than anything I need to figure it out and get it fixed asap.

When I did the swap the only difference in the trannys was the electrical connector on the tail shaft. My old one was on the passenger side with a small plug, the New tranny had it on the drivers side and its a bigger connection. Since I had the other plug and the wires looked identical, I would assume its safe to splice the connector and plug it in. Not too sure what the sensor is.

Anyone have any input or advice. Help is greatl appreciated.

You can't put a '94 in a '95-up vehicle. A '94 has one less solenoid for the PWM lock up. You'll never get rid of this code without swapping to the correct transmission.

Are you certain you didn't also install the wrong ('94) transmission?
