Could be many things. My first thought is valve body is bad, or damaged.
Could also be bearings inside the tranny.


Solutions:

-Have tranny rebuilt
-Do it yourself (Thus taking apart tranny/ including bell housing, pan, valve body, etc)
-Trash tranny
-Drive it till it takes a shit

This can be caused by a blown fuse.

Check your owner's guide, and ALL the fuses both under dash and under hood.

If they are all good, then it could be simply that the shift solenoid went bad, and they are replaceable w/o anything more then removing the pan and wire harness.
