I have a 2002 jeep grand cherokee laredo 4wd. I have a trans code of P1756 and vehicle feels like it has no power and shifts hard. What is this code? and how difficult of a repair is it to do? Thanks

P1756 = Mid presure malfunction, governor, sensor, etc.. When the governor sensor malfunctions it can cause damage to the clutches. Change out the governor & solonoid. Below is a link for a good video regarding repair of this problem.
