Default transmission won't engage no codes

It started a few weeks ago when a piece of plastic bound up on the passenger side cv axle, which brought the truck to a complete stop. After removing the plastic, reverse and drive gears would only barely roll when in gear. 1 and 2 start fine and eventually shift normally into 3. OD light does flash but no check engine lights and no codes. Dropped pan and no signs of fragments in the pan or filter which I replaced after examining thoroughly. Also fluid was not bad maybe slight roast smell but still clearish.
After examining range sensor I saw it wasn't aligned with the neutral line so I adjusted that still nothing so I replaced it and now it won't drive at all.
Im in desperate need to fix my only means of transportation and this is my last place to look before I have it towed to the shop if anyone has experienced this or similar please let me know what you did to diagnose and fix it. BTW the transmission is a 5r55e

If OD light is flashing you have a code. If you are using a 30.00 code reader you may not get a code. Ned to have is scanned with the proper software.
