I have been having trouble on getting my car running back to normal. I recently replaced the crankshaft position sensor (P0335) thinking my car would run back to normal, but that was not the case. My car does not pick up as quickly and the rpm's go too high. The OBD scanner now reads codes P0370 and P1727 and gives me notices such as "Malfunction in Transmission, " "Start-off assistance inactive, " "DSC malfunction, " "DBC malfunction, " and the brake light is on yellow. What is causing this? What are possible solutions? I have hit a brick wall need help!

P.S my battery is brand new and fully tightened.

This is a fautl with the sensor still, you may have a continuity problem between the sensor and the PCM, corroded terminals, loose pins in plugs or a high resistance in a wire, these need to be checked first.
