1996 Volvo 850 starts on park but not in neutral won't move on reverse 850

I hope somebody can give me an idea what to do next. I changed my PNP switch/ flushed the transmission fluid (12 qts.). After 2 days of driving the car now it won't go into reverse, but will move forward when I put it in drive. There is no flushing orange arrow/ no code when I scan it. I changed the PNP switch because the orange/yellow arrow was flashing and the car was sluggish w/ check engine light on. These are the codes after I replaced the PNP switch w/c I deleted before driving the car for 2 days.

1. P0733- gear 3 ratio incorrect
2. P0734- gear 4 ratio incorrect
3. P0500- VSS malfunction

The car run w/out any problem for 2 days, but this morning when I put it on reverse it won't move. I would appreciate if anyone could give me an idea what to do next. BTW, I scanned the car and could not find any fault/ check engine light is not on. The car starts fine on park but will not start on neutral. Thank you.

MM
