Default LU Solenoid problem?

Looking like it but i'd like a second opinion...

Wife was driving the car, she came to a stop sign, dies.

she said she tried to get it going again.. starts right up, idles fine. toss it in any gear other than P or N it dies...

i arrived to try to get it going, tried to give it throttle and drop it from neutral to drive, dies.

Mods are in the sig.

I'm guessing the solenoid is messed up...

only had the stall in there for about 2 weeks.

Thanks!

solenoid would be the easiest and first thing to change, I would however also inspect whats in the pan at the same time and make sure the valve above the solenoid is not sticking,
