If you live in the US, you can take it into an Auto zone store and they will read off the code for you. Once you have the code you can decide a course of action.
Other large automotive parts outlets may offer the same, as they all want your parts business.

Hope this is of some help

This code indicates a slipping condition in the transmission. You will need to see a tranny shop for diagnosis. But first check your transmission fluid level.
