getting the codes read would probably be the best course of action.

Hear any strange sound?

+1 for code read blinking [D5] light = problem with trans and you will need a scanner capable of reading those codes

Had a short. Bad ignition coil but here's the kicker. Went to remove bad coil and tube that goes into plug was melted...how the hell am I gonna get melted plastic out of there???

Why I asked if any strange noise is because the problem can be caused by a spark plug that has backed out and the heat has caused the coil pack to melt, esp. #5 cylinder.

There's also been problems with a melted coil(s) some due to the PCM that has had water intrusion from a clogged condensate drain causing the coil to overheat.

Some have taken hours to clean out the head, others have had to remove/replace the head.
