It sounds like it is low on fluid, this guide can help us see what's going on. We should check the codes as well.

The solenoid could be bad but wouldn't cause the problem you are having. As it is not shifting into third means the trans is in limp mode so there are some underlying problems with it. Probably a transmission control module.
