Question PLEASE HELP! cvt is acting up, codes EP and P1742

hi, i have a 2002 mini with cvt transmission . i bought it damaged and then repaired it . now that it is finished i can not get it to shift properly. the dash reads "EP" .

in the owners manual it says "if there is a malfunction in the transmission system , EP appears in the display." but it doesnt say why or what to do.

also, i have a mini code scanner and it is reading a P1742 which codes for "clutch solenoid short circuit".

any help would be greatly appreciated since i have no warranty and my nearest dealer is hours away.
thanks ,
Clint

It sounds like the CVT is screwed up. Was this car repaired from an accident or something?
