wet console.

I have a 97 E320, console sustained a water spill. Window switch replaced....shifter replaced with a used one and the tcm was also replaced. I performed the transmission reprogram procedure with the key position process and holding the gas petal. Car will still not go out of first gear. What else do I need to do....or missed.

What I meant was I didn't have any info on what a "limp mode" was. I understand somewhat now. Something has caused the car to go into this saftey override mode. I'm just trying to get my car back without being at the total mercy of someone that is trying to clean my clock. I've been there before, that's why I'm in this forum, trying to educate myself on the culprits and origin of my problem. If you have any other helpful information, I'm all ears.....Thank you for your help thus far.
