[V8] other trans problems

[cobram at juno.com]

As the other lister mentioned, your trans went into Limp home mode, and
it's usually just an insignificant blip that might not repeat again.  I
would occasionally get this on V8Q #1 on wet or snowy days.  I cleaned up
the trans harness plug with some electronic parts cleaner and a good
blast  of compressed air.  That was over 5 years ago, and the "Christmas
Tree" never lit up again.
