All helped with this problem.
*edit*
Ohm meters ftw!
Sure enough, solenoid one was bad. Checked at the ETC, then checked the trans harness to trans and both showed inf.... so we pulled the pan and sure enough it was bad.
T'was not a 15 min job though IJ, although maybe you've done it a time or two more than me.
If you...
