02 C230K Won't shift

I have searched this forum and found many reposnses to this question, but non of then seem to fit my situation.

My C230K has sat for about 2 years. Everything was fine when I parked it. Recently I pulled it out and did the brakes, and an oil change on it. Car starts and runs great as always. Check engine light is now on but havent cycled through many ignition cycles so am not sure if it will go out or not.

Problem is, the car will not shift out of first gear. Pulls hard in first, but won't shift. Even trying to maunaully shift with the paddle option doesnt work. If I press the W/S button, it also does not change the trans setting.

I have replaced the battery with a brand new one during the service.

Any help or tricks would be greatly appreciated!! I was hoping it was a simple electrical reset like everything else in the car. Thanks in advance.
