Lost communication with TCM

I have a 2014 Cruze Eco with 128k miles. I came out to go to work this am and it felt like Christmas with all the dash lights🫪. It said service stabilitrak, service traction control and to service steering wheel. I put it in reverse and it shuddered hard. I freaking noped outta that quick wtf!! 🤬. So I grabbed my handy dandy reader and read the codes. It said lost communication with TCM.

I quickly freaked out cuz got to go to work. Then I freaked out cuz repairs right now are not in the budget.

So I quickly googled and it was suggested to change the tcm fuse and negative battery cable. It said 90+% of the time it's either of those 2 things. So my dad and I(47F) changed both.

No change. Still showing those same messages and code. Still being a bitch and shuddering at the audacity that I have to go to work. I have a tow set for tomorrow and borrowed my mom's car. She don't need it right now since she broke her leg. But she still gave me the evil eye.

Any ideas?? Thanks!
