My cadillac dies on me while I am driving. . I first got the distributor code, then the throttle position sensor code now the park neutral position switch.. I replaced the distributor then found some burnt wires inside n replaced those. I also replaced the tps. . still getting those codes in history, my new code is the park neutral postition switch... After I had replaced the wires inside the distributor I found they had burnt the connector prongs on a part inside the distributor. could that be effecting my ability to drive? My car starts fine in park.. It seems the car dies when it reaches a certain temp. Could it be that piece inside I need to replace?

Seems you have a problem with the wireharness and is shorting out somewhere. Clear all codes and post the codes that comes back.
