Default Not Always

When selecting the manual option, the "brains" will over ride you if you are asking the tranny to shift to points it shouldn't. Please describe the indications you see, as well as what's happening. Your description is so generic, I'm not sure anyone can help.

There is sensors in the cover that see the handle in the manual mode maybe something is unplugged.
