yesterday- 1st- Torque Conv. stopped locking/unlocking 2nd- kicked itself out of overdrive, couple more miles, won't do anything- HELP!!

Can turn truck off for a couple of minutes, crank it back and it will go into drive, but only for a few seconds..then like neutral again... Same if I put it in reverse...Had a guy run a computer check today and he says codes tell him overdrive solenoid problem... can hear pump whining a bit today too.... i know it is probably coicidence but this all started within days of replacing my waterpump and thermostat.....
