What is your question?
I have a dodge ram 1500 year 2000 5.2 engine automatic trans. I just got her fixed up after a Long time dealing with fuse issues. Long story short I had set the jumper cables backwards while trying to jump start my truck,I was in such a rush but it was only for a split second. After that I repaired what I thought where all the problems. but the radio is still not working,dash lights and headlights work but inside the cabin lights don't work. Horn works, but transmission. Isn't shifting right. I never had this issue before. The transmission is rebuilt only 30,000 miles or less. It also just failed an emission test. The paper work says code po720 and I'm just open to any advice or suggetions.

Hello, That is indicative of the output speed sensor for the transmission, but may be support systems for the sensor; explanation: The sensor is just an extension of the transmission control module or powertrain control module. Since it is an extension, it must have a circuit to supply power from the control module and signal back to the control module. Since P0720 says there is an issue with the output speed sensor, the interpretation is that the signal from the output speed sensor is not reaching the control module, or the control module is not sending that information to the instrument cluster or ABS control module. Test for reference voltage from the control module, test for signal voltage from the sensor, test for continuity for the return voltage, and check to see if your speedometer works.
