P0700 JEEP - Transaxle Control System Malfunction
The transaxle Control Module (TCM) monitors the malfunction of sensors
and actuators relating to transaxle control. When the TCM detects a
malfunction with the control, a signal is send to the Engine Control
Module (ECM) to trigger the Engine Light or Service Engine Soon light.
The ECM stores the P0700 code and it means the TCM detected a
malfunction with the transaxle controls.
Symptoms
- Engine Light ON (or Service Engine Soon Warning Light)
- Driveability problems
- Transaxle shifting problems
Possible causes
- Shorted or open circuit within transmission control module (TCM)
- Failure of transaxle control module
Tech notes: Since the P0700 is just and informative code, check the TCM for more codes to resolve the problem. So you'll
have to have the dealer or another qualified shop/technician pull the transaxle
codes from the TCM and go from there.
Good luck (remember to rate this answer)
