At about 40mph, I knocked it into manual mode and it displayed 4.

I knocked it left, and it went to 3, I knocked it right and it stayed in 3.
This told me that either the "+" side of the switch was bad, a wire in a connector was loose/corroded/broken or the switch assembly was out of alignment with the shift (not sure if that is possible, but I am assuming it would be easily fixed and not a TCM problem).
