is there a chance the computer was toasted by high current during the operation , if the code reader can't access the computer maybe it's toast , I don't think the trannys of those years where linked to the computer ? Are you using the same key as before ?

Same problem on mine. Check the 20a pcm fuse in the fuse box under the hood. :)
