Default Trouble trifecta

Codes 121 tps volts don't match map
743 tcc solenoid/ circuit
1765 transmission 12v supply relay control circuit
I smell a pattern. Symptoms are shift between od and final drive gear at highway speeds. Any suggestions?

I have seen the TPS mess with other sensors. TPS do go bad from time to time.

just guessing here. look in the pdc box beside the battery and see if there is a relay for the trans. swap it with the horn or wiper and reset the pcm by disconnecting negative battery cable and turning on headlights for 30 sec.

Is it actually downshifting, or is the TCC just dancing?
