Transmission problem
1994 Oldsmobile Bravada 6 cyl Four Wheel Drive Automatic

When driving my car it refuses to shift from 1st gear to 2nd. i half to change gears from drive to 2 and then i will put it back into drive and it will not shift into 3rd gear. I have already flushed the transmission and replaced the transmission filter. What else can i do to hopefully fix this problem? Thanks much

The shifting when you place it in 2nd is done by a band. As far as the problem, it sounds like a bad shift solenoid. Has anyone checked that?
