The fluid change could have caused sediment to move around which could have clogged the valve body, blocking the flow of fluid, i would drop the trans pan, clean it, change the trans filter, and put in quality high mileage fluid with an additive such as trans sea-foam. Also make sure the linkage on top of the trans moves when you shift gears, it could just be a broken trans linkage cable.
