going to try this on my 97/ GS-T... Just ordered both solenoids off rock auto since All of a sudden, it won't shift out of 1st gear: P/R/N/D all work fine except it just won't shift. When I let off gas, it "goes into neutral" as if it doesn't know how to shift into 2nd from 1st... just hit 106k mi, original motor, no mods other than CBE and Injen Intake....It's straight forward. Drain/drop the transmission pan and locate which solenoid needs to be replaced, unplug and then un bolt it then plug in new one bolt up and put it all back together.
Have you tried manually shifting it, just to see if it might go into the next gear? It is odd that they all went out. Check the 12v source going out of the TCU to the solenoids. In fact, check to see if it is plugged in good. Usually, in limp mode, it only has 3rd so the fact that it has 1st means one solenoid is working.
