mine does same but I turn key to on, move the shift lever to drive and then turn key off, then start the diagnostic proceedure. Works for me.

now i feel dumb popped the tab off and under the cap labeled shift lock was a little screw took that out and was able to push it down and put it in D to run the diagnostic came up with code 1 as the issue, but i am unable to go into the fsm nico has on here, anyone know what that code 1 indicates?

.......anyone know what that code 1 indicates?.......

Revolution sensor circuit, not to be confused with the turbine revolution sensor. It's one of the 3 sensors bolted to the exterior of the transmission case and is easy to replace, especially on a lift. I was able to open the online FSM so you really need to get to a computer where you can view and print the couple of pages that talk about ohm testing and replacing the sensor.
