Removed the head and replaced valves and resembled. Car runs fine transmission has fluid but will not select gears automatically but will select manually. Transmission was working before I removed the head. Fuses are good.

I would make sure all the of systems ground are connected, they can be left off while doing a big job like a cylinder head removal. If the grounds are all good let's run the codes to see which ones are stored, this guide can help:

Please go over this guide and get back to us. Can I ask if this car has a cable running to the throttle body?
