How to Keep in 2nd Gear 850 95

I would like to keep my Automatic Tranny in 2nd gear. The gear selector only displays 1,3 and D. The only way that I can keep the car in 2nd gear is to press the winter button, put gear selector in 3rd, then press the accelerator to kick it down into 2nd. Then it stays there until I shift the selector back to D.

Is there any other way to keep in 2nd?

Do any of the aftermarket chips (ie. PES, Wettnauer, IPD) modify the way the gear selector program?

It might be nice to have the gear selector to act like 1,2 and 3 when pressing the winter button (with the kickdown and kickup disabled) and work normally without the winter button engaged.
