Start by checking the battery . You might need to take it to an auto parts store for a load test. If its good, do a clutch adjustment, and see if it improves.
Will it shift with the emergency handle?

I think its improtatnt to have a good strong battery for the system to work properly or at all. If its a '99 and the original battery I'd say its probably due for a replacement. If that fails there is a diagnostic check you can make, the service manual has the instructions for that, maybe somone here can fill in that info here.
