Not much info in the question... The way I see it, you're asking why your van won't shift into second unless you step on the gas.
Assuming that you have an automatic, as I don't think a standard transmission was available any more in 1995, your van should not be shifting into second until you're travelling at relative speed. When I drive, mine usually shifts into second somewhere between 15 and 30 mph, depending on how hard I accelerate.
If you're using the gear selector to put it into second, then what you're really doing is telling it not to use third gear. It will start out in first, and then go to second when it picks up some speed.
Essentially, that means all is normal, and you have nothing to worry about. Unless that's not you're problem.

YES it will bolt up to the engine, But it will not shift because it is a computor controlled electronic transission.
Yes Rotom can shift back. Thank you!
There is no such thing as a shift sensor, It is controled by the computor. You need a engine scanner so you can go into the transmission system and see what is going on with the transmission.
