Start with checking the transmission fluid. Ever serviced transmission?

SOURCE: 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix Gt not shifting into OD

this trans is the 4T65E. It needs a 4th clutch hub. The splines strip off around 120k or more because they weren't hardened from the factory. The new ones have the hardened splines. The trans needs to come out and be partially torn down. I've fixed alot of these. Change the EPC solenoid while you are there. They wear and hang up causing intermittent harsh shifts

You can drive them forever without changing the hub but you'll never have 4th gear

SOURCE: 2002 pontiac grand prix gt surges when idling and

CHECK ALL YOUR VACCUM HOSES. CHECK FOR CRACKED OR SPLIT HOSES. MAY ALSO HAVE A BAD COIL PACK. PULL ONE SPRK PLUG WIRE OFF AND SEE IF PERFORMANCE IMPROVES. ANOTHER IDEA IS TO GO TO HARBOR FREIGHT AND BUY A SPARK PLUG CHECKER. IT COSTS ABOUT 3-4 DOLLARS AND THAT MAY BE THE ANSWER TO YOUR PROBLEM.

SOURCE: grand prix torque converter locks up too soon

Either the speed sensor, TCC solenoid , ECU or a stuck check ball in a lockup plate. I recommend taking this to a transmission shop this could get fustrating.

2003 pontiac grand prix 3.8...the car hard shifts at take off and jerks from 1st - 2nd

If you have an Automatic transmission, you are out of transmission fluid. Check the fluid by viewing the dipstick nearest the engine firewall, and if it is low, add one quart at a time. Do not overfill, or you will blow a gasket and have a bigger problem. You may also need to replace your transmission, if problem reoccurs. To see if your transmission is leaking, park for about an hour, on any flat concrete surface and look for red fluid spills.

FUSES

This is it I don't have a manual and noone else seems to either. I'm old school muscle cars from seventies. This electronic **** is too Greek for me. The fuses are all numbered but which one is it? I tried to google a fuse box diagram for a grand prix gt 2003 but got nowhere.
