2009 Mazda 3 2.3 118k miles Sign In

Hello, I currently own a 2009 Mazda 3, 2.3L 118k miles on it.

It is automatic transmission.

When I come to a stop or coming to a stop the transmission skips from 3rd to 1st gear and almost makes a popping sound.

In addition, while this is happening the "AT" light comes on and stays on until I disconnect the battery.

While the driving the cars stays in 2nd gear with no issue and goes up to 3rd 4th and 5th without problems.

Coming to a stop or approaching a stop is when I problem.

Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks!
