Intermittent limp mode, need help!!

Hi guys, im new to this site. I have a 2004 dodge 2500, and it goes into limp mode everynow and then. It happened about 6 months ago, got stuck in limp mode, brought it to the dealer, they scanned and wiped the codes and it drove fine. Next day i lost my speedo. Long story short i ended up paying the dodge dealer just under 2k for replacing things that didnt need to be replaced. Rebuilt the tranny. Still have the issue happening every now and then. When it goes into limp mode i wipe the codes and it will drive fine. There are 3 codes that always come up when it goes into limp mode are:

P2769, P0973, and P0882.

These 3 faults come up when the truck goes into limp mode. Now there are 2 other codes that have come up only once they are.

P2509, and P0483.

I have found 3 wires melted together and went back to the schematic they are for the OD solenoid, speedo, and TCM. I taped the wires up and and still had the same problem... Please any help would be great!!

I didnt know there was one. I replaced the governor solenoid. It was one of my guesses that didnt work. Can i check the torque converter clutch solenoid without dropping the pan?

P2769-TRANSMISSION TCC CONTROL CIRCUIT LOW
When Monitored: Continuously with the ignition on.
Set Condition: This DTC will set if the voltage detected by the ECM for the Torque
Converter Clutch Solenoid Control circuit is different than the expected voltage. Note: To
clear this DTC it is necessary to drive the vehicle at a sustained speed which would allow
the TCC and/or Overdrive Clutch to operate
I notice on all codes the first check is the battery voltage, since u replaced the batteries I would check all cables for corrosion and being dirty all cables, i got the above info from the manual. good luck;;

I have been through 90% of the wiring. And thats why its such a pain for me, i can do alot if mechanical work on my own, but when it comes to electrical i throw the towel in... I have been told i need to replace the computer. Injust dont want to spend the 3k and have it not repair the problem.
