There are a number of tests that can be performed find the cause. The PCM ( powertrain control module)should be scanned for trouble codes. This transmission iselectronically controlled so it might just be a bad connection or a solenoid malfunctioning. This is a complicated procedure and without a transmission service manual and proper testing equipment it is impossible to diagnose.
