Default HUGE TRANNY PROBLEM ELECTRICAL JUNKYARD?

Well as some of you know I have a 1995 Ford Contour 2.0 auto and I have some serious tranny problems now......What happens is that when I am driving the tranny upshifts downshifts constantly with same throttle pressure and sometimes it acts like it goes into neutral then back into gear........This kills the **** out of the car goes to neutral hits rev limiter then slam back into gear. I was driving normally when this happened.......... Neone know what is wrong?

Im pretty sure it can cause something to malfunction. Electricicty and water/liquids do not mix well together.
