Transmission problem
1997 Dodge Avenger 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

The car simply will not shift out of 1st / low gear and I was wondering if that could be an electrical problem or not.

The fluid appears to be fine.

It shifts from Park to revers and neutral all fine, but when we put her in drive it stays in the lowest gear. Tried putting it in 2nd and it didn't shift, put it in drive and it didn't shift, the rpms just continue to climb.
