The error appears to be indicating an intermittent signal from the inhibitor switch, which is mounted on the RH side of the transmission casing. It’s a very common cause of the failsafe message for the 5HP24.

I have exactly the same readout on my delphi diagnostic.

If it's been stood for awhile the contacts inside the 'Park Inhibit' switch (XYZ/PRNDL switch) might have become slightly corroded and become high resistance giving the plausibility error (doesn't know what gear has been selected). I would move the selector a few dozen times to 'clean' the contacts in the switch, reset the error and try again. If the error comes back then probably best just to change it (assuming testing points to the switch being the issue and not wiring elsewhere).
