What to do when automatic transmission won’t shift into 3rd gear?

What causes an automatic transmission to not go into reverse?
In an automatic transmission, these units function as a one-way clutch. When the clutches begin to fail, the lower gears will not engage. Repair requires replacing the torque convertor and flushing the transmission fluid. A worn reverse gear can also occur when a transmission is mishandled.
What happens when one of the shift solenoids fails?
When any one of these two shift solenoids fail, the PCM commands the transmission to operate in LIMP IN MODE and this means that the transmission will run in 2nd gear only (no 1st and no 3rd or 4th).

Can a 99 S-10 2.2L auto transmission fail?
Recently, my 99 S-10 2.2L auto transmission failed at 130,000 miles. It was not “fixable” and had to be completely rebuilt for +/- $1,500. Works great now, and still beats a $500/month payment (for several years) for a new truck. It was disapointing that it crapped out at only 130,000 miles.

What is the shifting solenoid on a Chevy S10?
The shifting solenoid on a Chevrolet S-10 pick-up is designed to regulate when the transmission shifts. This solenoid is part of the electronic transmission control system, and is controlled by the powertrain control module, or PCM. The PCM actuates the shifting solenoid when it determines that an upshift or downshift is required.
