What do you mean won't change gears? Will it shift if you hold the pedal and let it rev until the governor says no more? If so it could be a vacuum signal problem. Could also be a B2 piston or similar problem that won't manifest as clutch debris in the pan.

There should be a switch at the end of the throw of the accelerator pedal. It sends a signal to a device that plugs into the back end of the transmission. It's the only wires you'll see into the back end of the transmission. You can disconnect the switch under the accelerator pedal. It either has a bayonet (twist) mount or it slides in from the top or side.

Could be that the floor mat bunched up over the switch.
