None of those codes are transmission related.

You say it's had 3 transmissions replaced since the vehicle was new and the 4th is now acing up. Just curious....what were the reasons for the three previous replacements and where did the replacements (including the current one) come from? Were they straight rebuilds or were internal...

That's why when dealing with Toyota parts, it's best to search via VIN.
