Hello,
This sounds likes like the TIPM is going out which is common but to be sure lets run the doces to confirm the issue here is a guide to get started.

If a code for the TIPM codes up here are diagrams and instructions to help you change it out. This is a plug and play part it does not need programming because it self initializes.
Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know what happens.
