U0101 Communication error to TCM 2004 RX8

I have a 04 RX8. The car will start but will not get going over 30 mph. Engine light is on and giving a U0101 Communication error to TCM. Help what does this mean and how do I fix it?
Thanks, Brian

TCM, is that throttle control module?

Check the connector on the throttle body.

Auto or Manual. more data would help. If auto, could be transmission control module.

I believe that's the Transmission Control Module

AT, right?


Try the 20 brake stomp reset.

Yeah,

Start with reseating the connectors. Then wires, then you will likely need the module.
