Trouble codes won't quit. 2003 Ford Taurus reads codes for Trans. shift

solenoids, but car shifts fine. WTF? My friend took her car to Ford dealer with "Check engine light" and drive-ability problems, NOT trans. related. They replaced the computer. $1200.
Shortly after, a "check engine" light came on and my mini-scanner showed Transmission and starter solenoid codes. The car starts and shifts fine, yet the Ford Dealer told her she needs a new transmission. And charged $126 for what I am sure is misinformation.
Could they be right? I'm sure it is a false code. yet when I erase, the codes come back.

Then the car broke down. I replaced Fuel pump for $500 at independant garage.

And took car back to Ford Dealer, who refunded $126, retested, and said it is an unrelated electrical harness problem and it would cost $250-$400 to fix.

I'm posting now and will be back in a minute with the codes.
Here are the codes PO 740, PO 743, PO750, PO 753, PO 755, PO 758, PO760.
That's 7 codes from Ford dealer. Some are active, some from memory.
My mini-scanner showed 4 codes. 3 shift solonoids and a starter solonoid.
