Default Gearbox fault

Greetings, gents. I am a new member with a 96 4.0 SE, and a 99 Disco Series I. I am currently putting my mechanic's children through college!

Need help with a "gearbox fault." I've had it to the local LR dealer twice, but he is unable to diagnose the cause. The engine starts instantly and runs smoothly. With no warning or relation to whether the engine is warm or cold, hard acceleration or no acceleration, I get a "beep" and kick into "limp home" mode. Gear indicator goes blank, but not always. Sometimes it will indicate a gear even though there is no acceleration (stuck in 3rd or 4th). If I restart the engine a few times, the gearbox fault resets and I can drive off, but it happens again.

The transmission fluid is a nice pink and does not smell burnt. I think it is an electrical problem as I have had to replace the fusebox about a year ago. Maybe the crank position sensor? Help!!!
