He said "no power to wheels, but park works". To me, that means zero motion in any direction.

And I am quite familiar with the flex PLATE. There are 6 bolts holding it onto the torque CONVERTER.

Have not been able to get under it to investigate, but a broken flex plate makes the most sense. I was just wondering if it was a common problem, or if it is broken, would it just be a random failure?
