Wont Shift out of First Gear

**2003stivGTP** · 01-14-2013

Hey guys,

I got a question that hopefully will spark some ideas/solutions on what may be wrong and what I can try to fix on my car.

Just today i was driving my car home from work and all of a sudden my car would not shift out of first gear, it will rev up, but not shift at all. It drives fine in first and seems to shift smooth into N and R.

Any idea's or thought would be great

thanks

How is the engine running?

Engine runs perfect no problems

Hmmmm

The shifting is largely effected by the tps, maf and map sensors. You can run fine and have a bad map. Worth checking out. Beyond that, it likely isn't an internal issue from what I've experienced. A forward band would have taken out all forward movement unless you put it in manual 1 or 2.

Thanks for the info, the engine light comes on but is showing up a different code that does not relate to the transmission. Would the map sensor show up on the computer? and where abouts is it located on the car?

Thanks!!!
