Transmission intermittently stuck in 1st gear

[jackchoo]

Hi, having some really annoying problems with my S13 auto tranny.

Symptoms :- after a stop light and starting move off, sometimes, it refuses to shift into second gear. So I end up revving it up to 5k+ and still to no avail. Sometimes it kicks in after a few revs but normally it does not help. The only thing that seems to help is if I stopped the car, turn off the engine and restart it again. Voila, it drives normally.

Is my auto tranny on the way out? I just did a flush and filled it with new oil about a month ago. I suspect that something electronic is acting up since 'restarting' the engine seems to solve it.

Appreciate any ideas! Thanks in advance!

if you can get hold of another computer for the trans try and swap it and see if it retifies it, easy way to check to see if its the computer thats playing up.
