Yogitech1 Posted Tuesday at 03:35 AM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 03:35 AM I recently had an alternator fail, it just quit charging. I had to have it charged up twice just to get home. Now I've replaced the alternator and charging great but, now I have DTC's P0700 and P0750 and stuck in second gear, no 1st, 3rd or 4th. What do I look for? I've cleared all codes to no avail. Now what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5rebel9 Posted Tuesday at 12:48 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 12:48 PM I don't have a direct answer fix to your code problem, BUT........ When the battery totally died the 2x you had to charge i up to get home, did it "die" while at speed? It could have damaged the trans and thus the codes and stuck in 2nd gear. I would start by checking trans oil level and COLOR with the dipstick the 4 bangers should have for the trans. and if low or "burnt color/smell, drop the trans pan and look for debris. This situation does not sound like an electrical problem for the trans, but a problem of the trans brought on by loss of engine running which is the supply of rotation for the torque converter and oil pump of the automatic trans. Most ALL auto trans cars say NOT to tow/coast at more than 30mph and for ONLY SHORT DISTANCES. If you "coasted down to a stop with it still in gear, well I would fear for trans damage for you in that situation. GOOD LUCK and keep us posted, AND I hope my thoughts are not the case for you.

yyz Posted Tuesday at 10:09 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 10:09 PM Last time I replaced my alternator I had codes as well (can't remember exactly which ones) and used my obd scanner to reset them.No problems since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5rebel9 Posted Tuesday at 10:16 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 10:16 PM A lot of the diagnostic steps for your P0750 code and P0770 code are exactly what I suggested. Your latest posting of codes after replacing the alternator the previous time were most likely charging system codes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reset codes twice, no results. I talked to a local shop and being I need to replace the rear motor mount he suggested checking my grounds especially where the electrical plugs into the valve body on the transmission. My task for tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
