Transmission on 2002 Honda Civic stops working when hot

2 weeks ago while driving to work I noticed my transmission started having a hard time shifting into 2nd gear. When I first turn on the car, it drives great. About 5-10 minutes after driving, it will start having trouble shifting into second gear. After a while it completely stops working. If I shut it off for a while, it starts working again until warm. Would this mean the transmission is going out?

01 02 03 were the years that were known for automatic transmissions failures. It happen to my 2001 civic as well but I got lucky as it didn't stop working it was still working with issues so I replace it at the dealer with brand new one. Your best bet would be to either replace it with a junk yard one or any transmission guys could do it as well. Hope this help.
