Transmission Issues
Guys, I need your help please. While driving this moring my ECU trips - I got the 05-04 - Automatic Transmission Control Unit Signal to ECU - I go ahead and reset and the ECU gives me the 05-05 code for all clear. Then after work I get on the highway and the damn check engine light just goes nuts on me - flashes with no pattern except it speeds up when i hit the gas and then just goes off as soon as i take my foot of the pedal.
I am going on a 400 mile trip tomorrow - so any feedback will be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance

You have problem with your transmision. Just take it to a Tranny shop, and have them check it out for your. it could be bad cable or something.
If the code keeps coming back that means there is diffinitly a prolbme.

you simply didn't reset your computer all the way and it's in O2 sensory mode.
The more you gas it, the more it blinks.
Reset it again, and remember:
Step A: twist clockwise to the stop, wait 4 seconds
Step B: twist counter-clockwise back to the original position.
Step C: DO STEP A and B AGAIN.....
If you don't do it twice, it will not reset properly, thus your problem.

Thanks for all the posts. I did reset the ECU - but did again just to make sure. Have not taken the car out - if the light comes back on - its off to the tranny shop. This could end up being very bad news - only 100,000 miles on it too
