depending on what reader you have it may not pull up the code for the trans. normally a pro model needs to be used for this and auto parts store don't have those.if hte fluid was burnt or dark brown there is a ood possiblilty that the trans is toast. meaning internal damage. but try to have it checked prior to removal.

Such symptoms usually indicates a failed torque converter, which is rather common.
