2000 GLE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION QUESTION

[bostickg]

AFTER DRIVING FOR A DISTANCE, THE CAR START TO NOT WANT TO SHIFT. MAINLY FROM SECOND TO THIRD. WHEN PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL, THE ONLY ACCELERATION IS THE RPM GAUGE. WHEN PRESSING THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR SOMETIMES IT WILL CATCH THE GEAR. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT THIS COULD BE. A SENSOR, THROTTLE BODY, OR TRANSMISSION? I WOULD HAVE TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND STOP THE CAR, PUT IT IN PARK, PUT IT BACK IN DRIVE AND START OVER AGAIN FOR IT TO START SHIFTING PERFECT AGAIN. THE FIRST TIME IT STARTED TO DO THIS I GOT A CODE 0720 FOR OUTPUT SPEED SENSOR. I REPLACE THE SPEED SENSOR AND ITS STILL DOING THE SAME THING BUT NOW THERE IS NO CODE.

SOME ONE TOLD ME IT COULD BE THE KICK-DOWN SWITCH! DOES ANYONE HAVE A CLUE ABOUT THIS PART?
