Did you put too much fluid in? I did that once, I still had overdrive, however, the transmission did run really differently.

Are you sure that you have 1st gear? If I had to guess you unplugged or damaged the 1-2 solenoid when you pulled or installed the pan. I would drop the pan and take a look at the two solenoids in the rear area of the valve body. If you had an issue pulling the pan due to exhaust clearance then you should find your issue.

Check the solenoids at the plastic snout for cracks. Thecan break on the removal or installation of the pan
