It still shifts n drives like it should

Since the code read torque converter clutch problem, It looks like the part to the r5ight of the circle is the torque converter valve and the part on the bottom is a the lever that control it. This will not effect normal shifting, but you will not have torque converter lockup- that is kind of like another gear. This will lower your fuel economy, but will not effect the shifting or running of the truck.
