Staying in second gear is "limp mode" that allows you to drive slowly to a repair shop without needing a tow truck. The place to start is by having the diagnostic fault codes in the transmission computer read and recorded. A scanner is needed to read codes in the transmission computer. Simple code readers only read fault codes in the engine computer.
