Hi. my car does not shift beyond gear three. I got a P0761 error code shifting solenoid c or stuck off, upon scanning it, with about 150 miles on it. I have replaced the transmission fluid and gear filter, also tested the solenoid and I got the 'click' sound to verify its in good order. It is still is not shifting past third gear. I need urgent help. Please reply.
Thanks

This sounds like an internal transmission problem or you have a bad connection at the transmission harness. Here is a guide to help you see what you are in for when checking the wiring.

I found the problem it was a broken wiring outside the harness at the main connector its like it got damaged from something off of the road. All fixed now
