What does the fluid look like and smell like. Second do you have enough fluid in it. If the fluid is brown or has shiny metal pieces the trans is done. Do you have any codes? Will the truck move if you select manual 1st or 2nd gear?

fluid looks good....the only code I can get out of it is 311(with a ford code reader) will not shift manually either......only reverse

Have you tried to see if the shifter arm underneath at the trans is moving? Maybe the nut came loose and is slipping on the cable?

Code 311 means you didn't hold the throttle down long enough during test. Remove the connector on the tranny and check for corrosion, clean and put dielectric grease on it and reconnect it.

The sensor is for pcm to know if you are in 4wheel drive or not and if its low range or high. I would check the trans connector for the corrosion or mud and pack it full of dielectric grease like advised before, had a similiar situation with my truck( supposedadly, don't ask). Check the wires from the pcm to the trans connector with a ohm meter would be my next step, and make sure you are getting full battery voltage as the supply to the trans. Thats about all I got aside from seeing a tranny guy.
