Umm was the BCM changed? If so you need the keyhead. I doubt you replaced that though.

I think (not 100%) that the problem is the switch that is on the auto to stop you starting it in gear. In the manual this link is just shorted out. do a search for "transmission switch" or something like that.

Hope this helps

It could be your problem then. There are a few threads that explain it a bit more clearly than I have. Have a search around the forum.
