DCT Codes...I Searched! HELP!

Got these codes. Searched and only found two other with the issue. One guy replaced his DCT and the other replaced the wiring harness.

I was driving normal (not hard), pulled into a parking lot, went into a store and bought something, returned and got the codes and couldn't shift out of park. Ran the codes on Carly, couldn't clear them, so called a tow. Car sat for 45 minutes, I started it back up and no issue.

I've never had any DCT symptoms otherwise.

Took car to my trusted mechanic anyway, put it on the lift, checked all wiring and grounds, found nothing abnormal. Mechanic cleared codes and test drive and no issues.

I'm having a drain and refill and new pan out on (typical weeping condition).

Any ideas!?

I was thinking along the same lines. My weep is not bad. Doesn't drip. But it's been going on for awhile, and so maybe fluid level got low. It started and shifted fine after sitting for 45 minutes so my thought was either low fluid causing overheating condition and sitting allowed it to cool, or low fluid causing insufficient suction or something and sitting let the fluid drain to the pan.

Pv’s are referenced when you teach in a dct adjustment on ista. I would recheck the fluid level as per the service manual then fill if needed.
