Default GTO limp mode

Just got the GTO back on the road but having trans issues now. What happen was there was a random hot wire in the engine bay from the previous owners nitrous set up and it grounded out. Causing the car to stall out and my dash lights to go haywire and the trans not to shift like it's taking off in high gear. Fixed the wire and pushed the main-plug in to the trans and the car seems normal while idling but trans had no change. Any ideas? I'm thinking shift solenoids
