I fixed it 2 broke wires. forward and reverse wire broke within 5 mins of each other. which made it really confusing to diagnose.

Code 54 is for swing solenoid abnormality.....check swing solenoid for open/shorts...and should be a diode in the system also...check that....check wiring to it dor opens/shorts
