I doubt it is the computer but its possible. Code 740 is a problem with the lockup torque converter. Code 841 is a low-reverse pressure switch problem. Code 733 is a third gear ratio error. Code 871 is an overdrive pressure switch problem, and code 700 is the generic code that means there is a problem with the transmission or the trans control module. You would need to clear the codes and drive it again. The codes that return would need to be checked to find the problem. It could be in the wiring harness too. If all of the sensors and switches check out ok, then the module would be suspect.
The code 700 is a notice that there is a problem with the trans control module, and code 1776 could be a problem with the low-reverse solenoid inside the trans. Code 1776 can trigger the code 700. The solenoid would need to be tested.
These sorts of problems are normally electric and i would hazard a guess but only a guess thats its a speed sensor of some description but what and where i have no idea offhand without a play with my automotive meter but you could try a code reader first to see if any fault codes are showing .
I had the same problem. I replaced the crank shaft position sensor and it solved my problem. It would stall at intersections and while under light acceleration. It also caused loss of cruise control and a stutter when at highway speeds. Replaced crank sensor and its been running solid for 5,000 miles. $125 fix self installed.
P0700 is EATX code present.
It simply means that the engine computer has noticed that the transmission computer has a dtc in it. This causes the Pcm (engine computer) to turn the check engine light on. You will need to have the TCM (trans computer) checked for codes to know what to diagnose.
error code P1776 - Replace rear solenoid switch
Likely both related The P1776 probably kicked off the P0700 notification.
