    Ok, I checked the shift solenoid screens, I checked the fluid both cold and hot, hot it was within range. I reset the computer, I only have a ECU code 7 and a TCU code 7, still no shifting or reverse. It is too hot to do two more flushes, will have to let it cool and try that. I did go too long between changes this time and I know it, I hope that getting the fluid completely changed, well as completely as you can short of taking the transmission apart, that it will shift again. 1 and 2 are very strong, maybe something is clogged. It has not been grinding in any "gear" (reverse, D4, D3, 2, 1)

      It basically happened overnight, I drove it, no problem, Saturday morning, by Saturday evening, it was no longer shifting and no reverse.

        It looks like here: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=179566

        That "Problem: My car won't automatically shift into second (non computerized only.) What is causing it?

        Solution: Possible shift valve seized. Rebuild required. (effectively, a rebuild simply requires sanding the shift valve.)

        Problem: My car won't go in reverse (can't backup.) What is causing it?

        Solutions: On car without an electronic transmission, replace fourth gear selector or the affected gear(s). The reverse gear is activated by fluid pressure. Check for an internal clogged fluid. Cars with electronic transmission don't require the shift solenoid to go in reverse."

        I wonder, could a clog cause both reverse and forward gears to not work, but yet........I can manually shift into 2nd. I'm so confused by this and I feel like total crap physically due to stress.

        So................
        ECU 7 = TPS
        TCU 7 = shift solenoid A

        Would a TPS cause a no shift/reverse? Why no grinding? Could it be because of a clog? And it's simply not getting fluid in order to shift? ARG!!!! I wish I had a manual transmission!

          I just had a thought, it did shift hard once just before I got home, but still no grinding. And I mean hard, much harder than it had ever done before.

            Slight improvement in power of the two gears I have, still no automatic shifting or reverse. There didn't appear to be enough clutch material come out during drain and fills, and I have a shift solenoid A code on the TCU, is there still hope? I don't know.

            When moving the shifter into reverse, I hear a click, and nothing else.

              Ok, I drove it to the store today, coasted partway backwards into the parking spot and pushed it the rest of the way so I could pull straight out, when I came back out, I was only able to get the car into D3 until I got down the road a little and was then able to put it into 2 but not 1, could this mean I need a new shift cable?
