Manual shifting on a automatic issue

So we have a 2010 Chevy equinox.
The problem is the car shifts but will not shift when in manual mode with the plus and negative buttons.

We are thinking it might be the button its self or the electronic components behind that button.
I can't find any info on the electronic peace behind that button but wanted to find out what would be the next step in locating the problem.

Not trying to spend a **** ton of money.

Keep in mind the manual mode is not a true manual. It merely sets the highest gear. So if it is set to 4, the transmission will still automatically shift itself in the range of gears between 1st and 4th.

Manual mode does not allow you to shift up and down through the gears like a true manual mode on other cars.
