You likely have at least two issues.
To see what the cause of the P1000 is you need to put a Scanner on (not a reader) and look at what PID/s have failed their diagnostic tests.
Then address those that are failing.
The trans is a different issue and not associated with the P1000 code because it's not part of the 'engine' control system but does test the transmission electrical operation so codes can be set for problems..
If the trans is an electrical issue a code will be set.
If mechanical it needs to go to a transmission shop as the computer can't tell much about the mechanical operation.
There is your start to see what problems the truck has then what to do about them..
Get the engine diagnostics cleared first, then the transmission so you can get inspection done. Inspection doesn't care about what trans issues there are.
Good luck.
