Code 39 relates to TCC, however it can have multiple causes. What you are describing sounds like the converter clutch is stuck on. Solenoid is behind side cover, you need to get FSM - Powertrain Volume. Try e-bay,craigslist,..etc... both books if you can. You also can subscribe to alldata.com

I think you need more diagnosis before taking trans apart. You could try Lucas additive it seems to be very popular here. It's possible it could free what is stuck. How long was car on the road after trans was repaired? It's possible something else is the cause related to the previous repair. You don't want take trans apart until all diagnosis leads to a internal fault, once it's apart you won't be able to run some tests.
