Transmission shifts into reverse fine, but when you put it into drive no forward motion as if you shifted into neutral?

I would check the fluid level first, but it sounds like the gear range sensor is not working. Does the gear light up in the gear selections? This guide will help you check the level:

Also, we should run the codes to see if any are stored.

Here is what I think is wrong with it Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.
