Default Transmission trouble code, looking for help

Fellas-


Had some issues while driving earlier tonight, and the Service Engine Light came on. Pulled the following codes:


P0753
P1441
P0753P


The code P1441 is one I've been chasing down for a while, and it came back to haunt me. But the new code, P0753, has me a bit worried. Results I'm getting are saying something about a shift solenoid, but I'm not sure where to start. Any tips?

better get under the car and have a look at the wiring that goes by the exhaust. both sides, also look for any damaged wires. test your gas cap.

For P1441: Already changed the gas cap and installed a new vapor canister. I have a feeling it's the purge solenoid or the valve. I'll keep looking into it. The car runs otherwise, so I'm not too worried about this code.

For P0753: The transmission fluid was a bit discolored and a little low, so I added some fluid and to the advice of multiple sources, added a bit of Lucas Transmission treatment. The transmission issues I was having were occurring at higher gears, something I can't achieve without hitting the highway. However, I'm not willing to take the risk considering I have to drive to Baltimore this upcoming weekend and I'm running short on time. The wiring appears to be ok, though I'd like to take it to a shop and have a trained eye check out the system. I'm just a bit apprehensive that it could be a $36 part and end up costing me over $200 in labor :/
