    Replace the switch first, it's less expencive than a transmission lol

    Yes also if the switch is causing any relays to switch on and off, your TCC circut being interupted can cause the transmission to act very funny including locking up the converter to make it seem like the transmission is in kind of like a "limp mode" or abuse mode
