That code refers to the fact that there is another code stored in the transmission control module.
Also, you should check the two fuses that supply the transmission control module with power, the fuses #F1.15 and F1.48 both in the battery junction block.

Do you have a scan tool capable of reading codes from the transmission control module? If you are using a simple code reader it most likely cannot read those codes and your next step would be to get the codes from the TCM. Once you give those codes or code to me I could get you a troubleshooting procedure.

You may have to end up having it towed and most likely to the dealer in order to retrieve that code and proceed.
