Do you may an you can't get the column to move???put half qrt fluid in it see if it helps.your linkage could be in a bind. Or the transmission is failing

It could be a modulate valve. Its internal.ig f the fluid won't help.it sounds like your pumps are burned.not ed new transmission or rebuilt sorry.hopefully I'm wrong
