Default Gearbox fault and engine systems fault

So i decided to pressure wash my engine and i guess that was a bad move because ever since then the dash reads gearbox fault and engine systems fault and my car runs like crap. It won't accelerate over a few miles an hour and it kicks really hard when i put it in drive. I took the TCM out to see if it got wet but it was dry as can be. What else could it be??? Please help!!

Welcome to the Forums.

Not a good move, but its done now.

No mention of the beast involved, only that you are in the US.

One the car is identified, there is help.

Good luck.

Hello, Chantel,
I'll bet you don't try to pressure wash your engine again. Modern engines do Not like that as you have already discovered. However, life is a learning experience.

The OP Chantel Clayton posted the question on 29th April 2020, logged out immediately and has not been back on the forum since.
