What is your question?
My transmission is stuck in 3rd gear all the time. Trans shop said to replace the ignition switch and I did. Nothing changed.
How long has your 2001 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 had this problem?

Hi, this is Bo, an auto expert on RepairPal's Car Genius team! Being stuck in 3rd gear all the time could mean your transmission is in limp mode. If changing the ignition switch didn't help, you might be looking at a shift solenoid issue or a problem with the transmission control module. It's like the transmission’s brain isn't getting the right signals. Also, check the transmission fluid—make sure it's at the right level and clean. Sometimes, a little TLC to the wiring can make a big difference, too. If nothing else works, a visit to a transmission specialist might be in order. Good luck shifting back into gear!
