Best Answer

A vehicle speed sensor or transmission range sensor malfunction can cause shifting problems. A loose connection or bad shift solenoid could also be the problem. Check the bulkhead connectors at the transmission for a loose wire or broken connector pin. Have the vehicle scanned for trouble codes. Electronic diagnosis is a complicated procedure and should be performed by a qualified technician . If you do it yourself purchase a transmission service manual and follow it step by step.
