Parked for a year and now it has transmission issues. First thing will be to check the wiring harness for rodent damage, they love to snack on the insulation and have been known to eat the wires. If the harness checks out visually then the next step is to unplug the wiring connector from the side of the transmission and look inside, it to see if there is any transmission fluid in it. It's a common issue on that transmission for the insulation and seals on the connectors inside the transmission to fail and cause random issues as well as the switch assembly inside the transmission which tells the PCM what the transmission is doing. The lost comm code is common in both instances. If the issue is chewed wiring it can just be repaired. If it is internal leakage you need to remove the transmission pan, then the harness and valve body to get the harness out.
