Scan for the TPS -voltage- (not %) and see if it's
below 0.6V or above 4.7V at idle and WOT respectively.
You can do this with key on, engine off using a meter
too. TPS voltage faults will cause a "failsafe" short
shift behavior.

You should chase down the wiring fault if it's just whacked,
or look at why the sensor is skewed if it's only a bit outside
limits.
