Check all the fuse's especially the tcc fuse in the under hood fuse box for being blown.

So all the fuse's were good especially the tcc fuse in the under hood fuse box?Also you checked for code's and there were none?How does it run in park?Can you rev it up smooth and does it idle smooth.

If it idles smooth too then I would say something is going on with your transmission possibly your torque convertor staying locked up all the time.

See if you can rent a scan tool and get some code's to help you find the problem. That's where I would start.
