SOURCE: wont rev over 3500 rpm

You should go buy a Haynes or Chilton manual to figure this out. Costs about $15. There could possibly more than one reason for this happening. Anything posted in response could only be speculation.

Check you transmission fluid if its thin theres your issue if not it could be your bands or your torque converter.

Have someone scan the transmission for bad shift sensors.

SOURCE: hard shift from 1st to 2nd, then 2nd to 3rd.

Dont think they changed it yet but the older chrysler units had a rod that went from the throttle linkage to the transmission (maybe a cable now)...If you lengthen the rod it will increase shift pressure and give you an earlier shift.

At what RPM 1st gear should shift on a H2 Hummer 2003

well is that hummer that a 2 ton or 4 ton vehicle ?

would take a lot of revs for first gear to make it roll from a standing start
think it will be fitted with an 6 speed automatic transmission

guessing only from my heavy vehicle driving experiences
first should change below 3000 rpm

if transmission was slipping in first gear you would know

suggestion
ring up the local hummer service division for the correct answer

Dodge Ram 3500 skips from 1st to 3rd gear, had rebuild after still the same issue. Any advice?

Governor pressure controls the 1st and 2nd shifts. After that is the 3 and 4 solenoids. you would need to look at the pressure when driving(takes a scanner). pressure is 20 to 30 PSI from 1st to 2nd, depends on acceleration. After that the pressure will jump to 100+ psi. Did you replace the governor solenoid and sensor? They are on the passenger side of the transmission and sit in a block that detaches from the valve body.

At what speeds should you shift gears in a 1999 Mazda B2500?

Shifting is determined more accurately by rpm's not speed. If you have a tach in the car, run the motor up to where you feel performance "flatten out" Regard that as your max rpm (for all gears) shift as needed about 500-700 below that number and all will be fine. (example: if motor flattens out at 3500 rpm, you should be shifting at 3,000 rpm or if not accelerating hard, at 2,800.) Going above the limit (shifting later) puts you outside the useful torque range and is not helpful.

1997 chey pu auto trans 1st and 2nd shift good drive doesn't shift until rpm's are 3500-4000 rpm

Do you get a check-engine light, or does the transmission O/D light flash? Many times, this is due to a speed sensor on the transmission. When the sensor goes, the transmission has to do default shift timing and it will shift very late. Usually, this will set a code in the onboard computer.
