    Odds are pretty good the sensor that the dealer "fixed" is bad. My mother sebring had the same problems with hard shifts like you're describing. As for your power problem, I'd have the battery tested first to see if it's ok. MOst autoshops will do it for free or cheap. Grab a meter and check the battery voltage while the car is running. If it's less than 13.5volts then pretty good chance the alternator is bad. I'm going under the impression though the battery terminals are tight and not corroded. Also make sure the wire from the alternator to battery is ok.

    dome light works? power windows work? if no, go straight to the fuses.

    you have any aftermarket guages put in yet? i remember once, the ground wire for my a/f got disconnected so the gauge decided to ground itself to the ecu. car ran funny cuz of that.

    Sounds like you're lucky though. When the sensor failed in the sebring it got stuck in second gear. That was not fun trying to drive from her house to mine so I could change it. Wish I could remember what the hell the thing was called exactly. I'll have to call her tomorrow to find out. I know it was cheap though like less than $50. Though if you're going to do a tranny swap anyway I wouldn't really worry to much. It shouldn't destroy the trans that quickly.

    domes arnt hooked up..solering LEds in it...Power windows only work when key is in ACC or On, before i can turn car off and have liek 30 secs to put them open tilli open to door where power cuts out..Checked all fused inside cabin already..My visors tvs power on...Radar turns on, ac works Hids power up...i have guages and it flickers cuz a loose conection..im go fix that right now...If thats it ur a life saver
