Default aristo transmission problem

Im having issues with my aristo transmission. After installing the transmission i was able to drive the car for a couple of days until it started to act up. After driving for a bit the car then slips as if the car is in neutral. After a while the car is able to drive for a block or two and then acts up again. I dont know if its my torque converter or transmission.

question for you on this...what did you do about the connector differences on the harness that plugs into the transmission?

Transmission was bad. I swapped the trans with another transmission and it ran great.
