The FSM says it three times in the procedure. My car is now throwing a P0700 code, as well as another, and is completely shutting off while driving. It is strange for that code to be there though, if that part is not present in his transmission.

I know what the FSM says, the FSM says a lot of things that are not correct, true or necessarry. I just changed a solenoid pack on a 03 neon. because it was leaking. I installed the old style with separator plate (cuz it was free). Put it all together and trans shifts fine, no codes, no quick learn required. afterall these transmissions, learn as they go. Prior to abougt 1993 the tcm didn't have a quick learn proceedure. The FSM had a whole proceedure to do to re-learn the tcm like after a rebuild.
Still none of this is the guy's problem. The p0743 code does not exsist for 2002. I also don't see any ways shape or form that the overdrive transmission is causing the car to shut off.
The biggest problem is theres been a lot of mis information and the wrong pcm installed along the way, not to mention the car sounds as if it started as a basket case.

Anyways, I agree about the incorrect code and the need to correct it.
