flashing orange arrow 850 1996

Hi all, my n/a 850 developed the upshift orange arrow symptom along with the mode selector switch lights flashing. This was accompanied by all revs and no go. (limp mode i guess ). left it overnight and drove it for 4 miles before it happened again. Car goes terrific in reverse !
full syn oil in good condition ( 6 months old )
disconnected battery for 1 hour
tried the rapid 15 to 20 movement technique
still the same. is there any other way to confirm if it is the PNP switch and the obvious question is : what else could be the problem---something major?
i look forward to your thoughts with perhaps a little nervousness
regards David
