Default Need HELP Cable tranny wont go into 3rd4th gear after fluid was replaced

I need help figuring out what happen/what i did wrong.
So i purchased a new car recently and decided to drain and refill all my fluids.
Fine did the coolant and went to do the transmission fluid the following day.
I drained the transmission and refilled it with Honda's oem trans. fluid(gear fluid )
after the work was done I couldnt get 3rd and 4th gear to engage(neither with the car on or off)
MY current set up: EF sedan with a DA integra OBD0, Cable 5spd transmission.
Upon figuring out 3rd and 4th wasnt working i did some research. I found that that if overfilled the gears wont engage..FINE so i drained the trans. a second time and made sure to put 2.3quarts.
Someone please help me out. i am freaking out thinking i broke my new car.
any information would be helpful

Check to see if your trans stabilizer bar and shift bar havent started walking themselves out of the trans for a start.

Changing the fluid or overfilling it will not cause that issue.
