I would check to see if the solenoid clicks when power is applied.

I have little experience on the workings of a transmission.

The TCU sends power to the shift solenoid to open it. You could back-probe each wire at the shift solenoid connector. Then connect a test light to each wire, then ground the other end of each test light. You would have two lights connected. If you use enough wire, you can route the lights to the windshield. Then you can watch the lights turn on/off while driving to see if power is getting sent to the solenoid from the TCU?

I just don't know when the TCU sends power to switch gears, or the sequence the TCU uses to go from 1-2, 2-3, 3-4.
