Change the module and see what happens? did you put enough fluid in the new tranny?

I'll bet you didn't have the module programmed? You might want to do that, especially if it is a part of the job? What year is you ride?

did you try using a pen to bypass the lock and see if it shift?

on the electronic selector lever, you will see a small square part that can move when you push. insert a pen through it, and shift it.
