Default Stuck in 2nd

I just put a fresh 4l60e in my 2000 SS. I drove it right after all day with no issues. Now for some reason the car will stay stuck in 2nd gear. I can't manually shift it and ther are no codes showing? Any ideas I'm lost. the car has a 3500 stall and has had the tranny codes for the converter deleted. Any help?

Check the plug in harness on trans make sure its plugged in then look for burned wire ect in harness and have the car scanned even if the light is not on there should be a code for one gear only
