Could be the 1 to 2 or 2 to 3 shift valve. If so the valve can be removed for cleaning.

Or a clutch, brake, etc. This requires removing the transmission.

If A140E, trans has electric shift solenoids but don't think this is the problem.

If may be the manual shift valves inside the valve body bolted to bottom of trans.
