Transmission Red Light
I would try some of the test like Leroy said with someone in the
drivers seat looking at the light. when it goes off you will have a
clue to the connection that has issue. That way it wont end up a now
and again problem. A shop may just check and poke at everything
untill bychance it works. always good to learn the real cause. I
would think it easier and less bucks to find a mobile tec to look it
over than have it towed.

the allison computer is in the bay under the driver ( in the 94)
there are plugs and test ports under the shift console in the
cockpit and there is a converter modual between the atec and ddec
some place that could have issue with voltage + or ground.

grounds are my first review. I often run a cable from the battery -
to various locations to add a ground and bypass a weak one.

I always wondered if the retarder making the brake light glow could
cause an issue with the Allison computer?

Good luck, I am sure you will find it without a tow and be better
learned on the systems while you search

If my front rear start selector is not just right it will give me a
do not shift light. I do not have a drawing for the tranny but if
it's not the rear start selector it's probably a ground related to a
the speed sensor. Seems like I remember a post a long while back
with the same symptom. Maybe the one who had the problem will talk.
