The "HOLD" light on a 2007 Chevrolet Optra typically indicates that the transmission is in a mode that prevents it from shifting to higher gears. Yep, the first thing I would do is change the switch, yes, they are easy to change. The switch will pop out in most cases, or you will need to remove a trim panel. If you upload images of the switch I can help you, also, we should run the codes to see if any are stored.
