When I start my car the shift indicator lights are fine but with in a few seconds the light indicator lights switch to all solid. Sometimes this occurs right when I shift. My VW Jetta has automatic and tap shift, when the light become solid I am not able to read when I shift in automatic nor when I shift tap shift. No issues with Transmission shifts or shifting in general. Please someone help me.
Might just be indicating a fault in TCM, have vehicle scanned.

I'm no expert but it sounds as if you might have some moisture (water) contaminating your tranny fluid. I'd first try having it drained, flushed and refilled with fresh fluid. Preferably after it has been warmed to room temperature - -2 brrr.

The tranny's are notorious for having "small" problems before they actually let go. However, there is a sensor on the transmission that tells it when to shift as well as a couple of air and cooling sensors. Try having those tested/changed and see if that helps. If not, you may be looking at a new transmission

need to know if a 1995 jetta vr6 automatic transmission has to be set by a computer when re installing. also do you need a computer when adding trans fluid. what type of trans fluid do i put in an automatic jetta vr6 trans.
This trans slips and does not go int gear. It goes forward in all gears including when in neutral and reverse.
SOURCE: How do I repair the gear shift?
Locate where the shift cable linkage mount to trans, check for good tight attachment to ball socket, then have some one move shift lever through gears watch to see if cable moves shift arm BOTH directions if not replace cable
Testimonial: "Thanks! It is the cable and as soon as the parts store is open I can get a replacement. Happy holidays! Juliann Turner"

There is an electrical malfunction in the EV5 solenoid electrical circuit. You must go to Advance Auto or Autozone and borrow their scan tool and get the code.
