I just started my car up after several months of sitting. Did a fluid change on everything and now the transmission is acting funny. It goes into gears fine but seems to sit in a higher gear in D. Slow to accelerate. I did notice that one of my connectors at the tranny is broken. I can't seem to find what it is nor a part number thru toyota.

Anybody know what it is and hopefully a part number?
It's what's circled in the red.

Can't tell really by the connector photo but it could be a solenoid connector on the transmission. If it's solenoid number 1 you are stuck in 3rd gear that's why it's hard to accelerate.
Here's a link to the manual of the transmission

Go to page 98-103 and diagnose your problem.

it's turbo ninjas .com in one word(no spaces) for some reason i can't post link but it works type it up. Copy the link and write it instead of the ------'s

ALSO IF YOU PUT THE TRANS IN L mode you should be in first gear. In D and 2 you will start in 3rd

I found the part number finally. Its called the transmission wire. Part number 82125-33010. If you google image it it will show a pic on a lexus website. looks like 3 seperate wires run from it inside of the tranny.
