Rat in the Engine bay

Hey Guys,

So I driving on the Freeway when I felt a slight jerk, at that same moment check engine light and TCS came on. After pulling over into a parking lot, I notice right off that the car felt like it was not shifting into 1-2 gear and was rolling back in 1st, although runs fine at high speeds. Another thing was the sport shift was non functioning and my Navi was not tracking my movements......weird.

After Checking with a code reader I got:

p1298 Electric Load Detector (ELD) Circuit High Voltage

p0135 Primary Heated Oxygen Sensor (Primary HO2S) (Sensor 1) Heater Circuit Malfunction

p0141 Secondary Heated Oxygen Sensor (Secondary HO2S) (Sensor 2) Heater Circuit Malfunction

p0753 Problem in Shift Solenoid Valve A Circuit

p1768 Problem in A/T Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Valve A Circuit

P1753 Problem in Torque Converter Clutch Solenoid Valve Circuit

I also checked my O2 sensor and noticed that a couple of wires had been exposed by a possible rat chewing through the wires. Although the little bugger did not cut through the wires just exposed them enough where they could have shorted against the engine block.

I have reseted by pulling the battery, checking all clear fuses, and fixing the o2 wires......but no help. What do you guys think? Thanks!

By you saying the Check Engine Light and TCS came on, your transmission is done, bro. Sorry to tell you but that is one of the signs that results in transmissions dying on 00-03 models.
