The airbag LFC ( light Flash Code ) 27 is the PAD ( Passenger Airbag Deactivation ) lamp is inoperative.
Sounds like it got disconnected while you were back there. Might want to pull the surround again, and check to see if a connector is pulled apart, and work your way back to the PAD lamp.
Also check the route you were working in removing the wiring for the AMP, the connector could be anywhere you were working.

The CEL ( Check Engine Light ) you would need to get a DTC scanner and pull the code. If you have Autozone do it, get the actual code, not what they think the part is to replace ( seems like the default answer is O2 sensors ).

The above problem ( LFC 27 ) might also be the source of the flashing OD lamp is reporting a problem with the transmission with a sensor or actuator. Could be disconnected connector also ?
