Common issue on the 722.6, the plug on the trans fails and allows oil to push into the harness, it wicks up and fills the ECU. Often, it doesn't create any issues, and that's why they moved the transmission controller inside the transmission in the 722.9 and going forward.

You have to clean out the fluid and change the transmission electrical plug
