there is a switch located on the tranny it looks
kind of like a plug,try moving the wires around first,if
that doesnt work you will need to take the switch out
and replace it with a new one.

your gonna have to work under the car. it will be on the drivers
side kind of hidden,just follow the wires.when you find it there will be
a rubber cover over the switch pull it off "gently". the switch will
have a two-pronged screw type connectors on it. you know what
you might be able to take it off from there,depending on the angle
or you might have to drop the tranny!!!
