    Also I would try a control module reset, disconnect the battery for 30 minutes and reconnect. Before doing that make sure you know all the codes for radio, anti-theft device and how to reset the OBC time and date.

    In emergency aka limp mode, you only get a high forward gear plus reverse. If it is shifting normally 1-5 + reverse, this sounds more like a spurious warning - possibly an issue with the cluster. IIRC, the TCM provides a ground to the cluster to bring up the 'trans prog' message. The wiring diagram suggests you might have a look at pin 25. No TCM fault codes?
