If this sound is there only when the car is moving, probably an air leak or loose/plugged cabin exhaust vent. Could be cabin air leakage past the rubber seals around the door - check for gaps. While you are at it, there should be a vent on the door post that is meant to relieve excessive air pressure in the cabin (your HVAC system fan is always running when the car is running). If the vent is not allowing air to pass through freely from the passenger compartment, or there is something loose behind the vent, that could also make a noise.

If the steering and suspension parts are OK, could be a lot of things such as loose parts around the engine (e.g. battery tie-down, bumper cover, etc.). Unfortunately, if a shift solenoid is an issue, the shop is correct and just the start of problems with the transmission. These transmissions are pretty rugged, but they have to be serviced every 80K miles or so or this will happen.

LOCKING THE DOORS WITH THE FOB AND THEN UNLOCKING THE DOORS WITH THE FOB WILL RESET THE FACTORY ANTITHEFT SYSTEM.

A new battery will not correct a theft activation issue. If the system is activated the theft light will blink and the vehivle may start and stall or not start at all. You can try locking/unlocking doors with key fob to see if the system resets. If it doesn't reset, there is a procedure of turning the key to the on position and leaving it there for 15min. Turn key off and then try and start vehicle. This may reset the security system.

Have you checked; the fuse, the bulb, the ground cable?

yes go to your dealer with your key and wireless door lock fob

nooooo

Make sure the ground wire isn't damaged. If it isn't earthed correctly, you won't get power!

Could be the circuit board. Could also be the turn signal switch on these cars

Is it the water pump? or just the pully? try spraying light oil like WD40 onto pullys if it stops its just a dry pully

yep, usually when putting full lock on the power steering (the belt driving the power steer pump if loose ) will squeal. Tighten it up to allow 1/2 inch deflection or slack in the longest section of the belt.
