Default tiptronic will not shift

Does anyone know what causes the tiptronic to not shift? I have a 99 a4 wagon that when you put the shifter over and shift up or down nothing happens.when the car is in drive it shifts normal. any help would be greatly appreciated.

There is a computer controll called an ecm that tells the trans what to do. It could also lock you into one gear when in auto mode. It would report codes when hooked up to a cpu if it is not working properly. It is directly responsible for the tiptronic system.

your fuse might need changed
i had a battery problem one day and in turn my tiptronic stopped working and turned out it was only the fuse
