still won't shift
The word button , tips hand that it is a automatic trans,
but not which one. they had 2 that year, 42/44re and
the AW4 box, has a TCM (tranny brain.)
and all tranny brains go to limphome mode, (skipping or freezing 2nd) if inputs are WRONG.
the TCM can be scanned, to see why, skipping this step misses the boat,
I have the 1995 FSM book. chapter 21.
42 or 44RE trans? is that yours. the tag on side tells you what it is. look for the tag, and learn what car run for a drive-line.
see" trans... opt" here. ZJ

page 21-45 is diagnosis page, in the FSM book.
ON car service, and step 2 is scan it. (step one is fuses. levels)
ever consider read this book on this car and this trans?
here is the non tool way,

i use a Innova 3140 , tool that does jeep 1993-95, OBD1
i have not tried, to see if it will log a trans DTC;s
using a real scan tool , helps greatly to see all TCM codes.
most TCM can do 10 error code, all very revealing.
make sure the transmission is grounded, with a good ground strap
seen people replace trans 3 times, then do strap last. sad.
Trans issues are many
(ill skip bad trans)
- wiring bad, from TCM to trans, or from TCM to all sensors. to it.
- bad TCM
- lost power 12vdc to TCM for any reasons.
- lost ground to trans or TCM.
a scan tool that can scan this back in 1995 was the DRB-ii
DOES THAT HELP?
