Maybe the shifter sensor is bad? Does the correct light come on for each range? (N for neutral, etc..)

i would guarantee it is the shift sensor too, mine has done this and got it replaced and problem fixed. i think it is due to the sensor being plastic and not too well protected from things. PB500

if i am not mistaken, it is one of the two plugs that are right in front of the rear brake rotor, i may be wrong, but i think that is it.
