Take a look where the cable attaches to the transmisison. If there's a black plastic chunk there with a harness connection, that's what outputs what gear its in.
If there is no electronic module there, then it has the IMS which is internal to the transmission. I know the IMS setup was introduced in ~99 on the 4t65, but they were hit and miss with rollout. Worked on a 03 GP once that still had the external module, so I'm not sure what the 04 monte got.

So it'll have the internal IMS then. Doesn't necessarily mean the transmission needs to come apart if it broke though - people have done the conversion to external for swaps and such.
Not sure if the IMS is actually causing the issue though- you'd have to get the wiring diagram and check the appropriate wire outputs from the transmission plug.

AFAIK there's only two options on the 4t65, external (on top of the transmission) or internal (inside the transmission). If you think its somewhere else, you'll have to take a look at the wiring diagram for your car to see where it shows it being located.
