2002 T & C limited Transmission problem

[SRC1968]

i looked and searched, and i can't find this answer.

the gear shift works fine, and we lifted the hood and saw that the mech. arm IS working when we shift. However, the van will not move into any gear. won't go forward, reverse, etc... it acts like it isn't shifting.

i was driving down the highway, and noticed it wasn't excellerating and stepped on teh gas.. .and nothing. I stopped the van, put in park, turned it off. Started it again, and put in D and wouldn't go, just engine reved. then put in reverse and same thing... didn't move but engine reved.

Any ideas?
thx

PRNDL is accurate even on ODB11 shows it 'changing' gears.

Sounds like you have an A-604 electronic 4-spd tranny, which came on V-6 engines (recall 4 cyl was gone by 2002). I am confused about the "lever under the hood" you refer to. I thought shifter on the steering column was simply an electronic input, like a mouse on a computer. Does it actually move something under the hood?
