Default Baffling transmition issue

Hey there, i have a terrible issue with my 2005 base model automatic

My wife drove it for the last 5 years, over 150,000kms with no issues. One day the trans goes into limp mode. Drive light blinking and slipping like crazy. Sometimes after an hour of driving sometimes after 2 minuts. Randomly

Ordered a trans and put it in, got the same issue.

Braught it to an afternarket honda shop, they installed a trans and same issue. We took a transmition out of the owners car and same issue. so 3 transmitions and it still doesnt work.

So i buy a new computer. The old one was a little corroded on the socket so i repinned the plug. No help. New computer doesnt help either. Everything was tested and tested again.

Iam going back to work this week so my free time is gone. But i have no problem hanging on to the car and doing the work it needs. i love this car and dont want to dump it

Does anyone have any ideas, or stories, or possibilities, or even theories that could help me?

Thanks all of you, this forum has helped me alot over the years

I'm thinking you have a wiring problem. There has to be corrosion on a connector to on of the sensors or solenoids.
What is the Code?

I didnt write the code down but its just the bad Ratio code. Slipping code basicaly, Nothing else

We did plugs and sensors, cleaned and repaired and tested all. It might be behind the dash or at the firewall

Thanks for the reply!
