Incorrect gear ratio means its time for a new Tranny.

You do not think Sensor or Silenoid will help?

No you can try taking it to a shop but in almost every case I have seen with that code results in a new tranny replacement or rebuild.

You might try doing a tranny drain and fill and see if you can get a little more life out of the tranny. But DONT DO A TRANNY FLUSH.

The linear solenoid would not help. Try changing the shift and lock-up solenoids. It they do not work, the trans has to be rebuilt/replaced
