HELP!! Wrench idiot light on dash. '06 F150

Scenario: Going to pick up my daughter and unsure of speed, (I THINK when it hit the overdrive gear) and all of a sudden I hear/feel a slight clunk. Right when this happened that little wrench idiot light came on and I had idle, but pushing gas pedal didn't do anything.

Pull into p-lot and put in park. Idles fine, switch into reverse it goes into reverse but pushing the gas has no effect. Same in D.

Turn truck off,,,,no tranny fluid dripping thank God. Turn it back on and light is out and everything functioning normally. turned OD off just in case and came home.

*Side note* My buddy's diesel 250 was acting funny as well and had a similar problem. He wanted to blame it on the computer,,not it,,,wanted to blame it on the chip,,not the problem. He says that all along it was the connections at the battery. Cleaned them up and his truck hasn't had that problem ever again.

Anyone else ever have this problem????? Now I'm worried. Hoping it's just the battery connections.
