my problems started when my check engine light came on , the codes read p0175 p0700, so i changed my conductor plate and plug , then i took the car to the shop to erase the codes and get the car out of limp mode, my problem is the car does not shift well through 1st and 2nd gear, and the code p0175 pops up , did anyone have this problem before ? could i of ruined the car when it was in limp mode? can someone please help? thanks

was the connector leaking when you removed it? the oil could have traveled up the wiring harness and into the transmission control module. it is not uncommon for this to happen.

when you say control module, are you talking about the conductor plate? because i changed the conductor plate ,

Please check to see if its the Gear Select Module, if you see ESP not available, it's a fair indication of that or the Transmission Control Module being bad.

yes these are the two codes that pop back up after the conductor plate and plug were changed , do you think it could be a bad solenoid? or i just need a new value body?

The TCM is inside the transmission.

The video towards the bottom should illustrate where it is.

The TCM is in the right front control unit box under the hood with the fuses.
See attached part 190.
