Was the fuse blown? If it was, you may have caused more damage.

You have an electrical issue here with maybe a solenoid or wiring harness. Get it checked out asap as it wont get any better and you dont want to damage anything else in the box.

The transmission control unit for this model fails quite often. Have you tried to check for trouble codes?

All do respect, they are parts salesman not technician. They want to sell you parts.

You need a trans shop to guide you here. They are qualified to give you there opinion.

I believe the transmission control unit is bad. If you remove the unit, check the interior circuit board for damages due to water entry.
