2004 ES330 alternator failed now transmission will not shift
Recently had an alternator fail. Replaced with OEM part. Charging system up and running to spec but now after you drive for a few minutes the transmission loses communication with TCM data and starts shifting crazy all over the place. I've seen a few hits on this online but no solution. gill23 had this happen but I have not been able to reach him. Odd thing is you can disconnect the battery for a few minutes and it will then again shift fine for a few miles. It doesn't start to slip it gets VERY erratic. If I look at the data stream the transmission data is delayed. Some kind of crazy electrical issue with the communication circuit.
