Transmission Code P0731

My wifes 1998 Intrepids' Check Engine Light came on yesterday, and while she was turning into the driveway the car stalled. It would fire right up again, and drive normally, but when she went to pull into the driveway again it stalled.

I took it into the shop, and they read the computer and thats when the P0731 code showed up.

P0731 Incorrect gear ratio # 1

When I went to bring it home, I then noticed that the speedometer was not working, and the tranny wasn't shifting out of 1st gear.

The tranny fluid is clean and not burnt, does anyone have any ideas.

I'm hoping I don't have to get the tranny rebuilt.

Thanks

I would start by checking your input and output sensors on the tranny.
