Description of the problem	I was driving the car at about 25 mph and as i came to a stop the check engine light came on. I tried to continue driving but it wouldn't drive as i pressed on the accelerator. The prnd all had a square around them. The mechanic was able to fix the problem by making sure all cables were clear from dust, debris or not connected properly. That seemed to work the first time. After 5 days of driving the car it happened again. As i merged into the expressway the car suddenly lost acceleration. Check engine light, slip indicator, temperature warning light all came on, and prnd all had a square around them. The car wouldn't run properly, as if it was stuck in first gear. It wouldn't drive past 15mph. Took it to the mechanic and 7 wires were burned out. I believe the wires that go to the transmission. He explained to me that the wires were over a sharp edge on the body and when the car moved the wires would rub against the sharp edge because there was nothing protecting the wires from the body. He also said there was a spark mark on the body of the car and that was due to the short circuit the wires caused.
