Default Transmission problems 1998 cherokee

I have a 98 cherokee 4wd automatic, the trans seems to be in limp mode, in drive takes off very slow like its not first gear and wont shift.
If I manually shift it, it works perfectly 1-2 3 and then overdrive works like it should.. When the tcm is connected my dashboard goes out and doesn't work and doesn't change the shifting when in, it still works when i manually shift I just am wondering if its the tcm like I think it is

Sounds like the TCM took a dump, especially if it kills your instrument cluster.
