Search my previous posts about it.
I had the same thing happen 3 times in the last 6 wks. Each time the light went out the next day. Last time, I had it checked by a local indie who said it was code P0705 - "Transmission control switch".
The 2nd time it happened it went into limp mode. However the solenoid on the throttle body was not tripped. I disconnected the battery for a few minutes to reset everything including the limp mode.
Went to the dealer last week and they confirmed that the transmission control module needed replacing. $600 Canadian for the part alone and about 2 hours labour (all covered by my extended warranty). Steve C on this BB said it should actually cost about $300 USD.
Autozone in the US can check the code for you with an ODB II reader for free.
Hope that helps.
