Ok this is what needs to be done 2 very common issues for this problem.First change the fluid and remove the shift solenoids and clean the screens and reinstall.Then test drive the vehicle .If there is still an issue you will need to replace the transmission computer located under passenger carpet the smaller of the 2 computers.You can get this off ebay of from a salvage yard to save some money.These are the next steps.Hoped this helped.Positive feedback and bonuses greatly appreciated.

Ok then this can be an internal problem in the transmission . Have you made sure the shifter cable is not binding ?

Expert:  HondaPlatinum replied390 days and 9 hours ago.

It has an internal adjustment as does the throttle cable so check those to make sure they are not damaged.If they check out ok and the shift solenoids are not shorted out this is an internal issue in the transmission.These are the next steps.Hoped this helped.Positive feedback and bonuses greatly appreciated.
