Hey, well I'm driving it but I don't know some kind of miracle happened I guess. I have no idea how old is driving but it is check engine lights on, shifting kind of weird and like I got the heater going. But the right side is warm the left side is cold. just a little weird stuff like that. but yeah pretty crazy.

Are the lights still on?

Did you verify coolant levels?

Since it has not run in a while, you may want to consider changing the transmission fluid and filter.

Follow the guide I sent you. It is a lot easier than the wiring you did.

The filter is inside the pan. When you drop the pan, it will be right there.

Okay, site rules state we can only address one issue at a time.

For me to continue with the transmission issue, please start a new question back at the beginning.

Thanks,

You have a wiring issue at that 1 coil. One wire feeds all the coils there power. they each have a return voltage to the PCM.

Take a close look at the harness.

Look at another coil and see which one has voltage with the connector disconnected.

I attached another diagram that is clearer. I circled the wire that should have battery voltage with the key on.
