volvo vnl d12 2007 Ultrashift transmission , last 6 VIN 444 220 ..
transmission working perfectly fine while being driven, once when you stop,put to neutral and want to put in gear again, truck get confused,making beeping noice and and do not wanting to put in gear . sometimes you need to keep brake pressed for a few minutes(from 2 minutes to 1 hour) so it can put in 1st gear.
If you are on little down hill you can let truck rolling in neutral and press D button when you are going 5mph and he will switch to gear without problem.
i loose every day 2-3 hours with this thing,many times i was stuck on middle of intersection!
it is not helping taking batteries off,restart with board computer or anything else..
replaced 6 speed sensors, replaced harness and replaced Range valve. still same issue
It feels more that it is some kind or electronic issue more than mechanical but i am not sure
Please respond if you know about this type of truck issue

XY shifter? Does it throw a service light when it wont shift into gear? If so have you had it hooked up to read any codes. The other thought is that maybe the inertia brake may not be slowing the input shaft enough to allow for gear engagement. How bout the clutch? Might not be releasing fully or staying partially engaged.
Get it to someone that know the trans that can get it hooked up and make it act up for them. With this the problem will usually be found in short order.Brcak108 Thanks this. -
No any codes, no any lights, only he is beeping and flashing gear number.. somebody else told me also it can be clutch.. $1800 for parts only !

Yank that junk out and install a manual trans.
The Ultrashift has to be one of the worst autotragic transmissions besides the Eaton AutoShift. -
No experience with AMT's but the fact you say that it will go into gear while rolling makes me suspect the clutch might be dragging a bit. Plugging it in to a diagnostic computer should be able to tell you if the transmission is still turning while trying to go into gear.
Goodysnap Thanks this.
