I have a 2002 Dodge ram (2003+ style) Check engine light came on for a few days then went off. Scanned it to see if it saved it and it did. Its the 4.7 v8 with only 69k miles, 4x4.

P1776 manufacturer control transmission.

Any advice would be appreciated. Transmission problems are never cheap Im hoping im not screwed with such low miles?

 

A few other guys threw some trans codes and it ended up being the crankshaft sensor. not sure if they had the same codes, but I's check into it.

 

From what i can find online its something about the valves or a Solenoid Switch Valve? but that was not for a ram, was for a dodge car. Anyone else have any info please?

 

Replace the valve body, it will come with solenoid pack already bolted to the valve body. And replace the filters too.

 

how much would that cost parts and how much would that probably cost labor you think?

thanks

 

The light went off... but it still worries me that it came on in the first place, it will probably come back to haunt me soon? want to fix it before something gets worse right?

 

When was the last time you had your trans serviced? I think that be my next step, take it down for a service or drop the pan yourself in your driveway and make sure you fill it up but not over fill it as that can cause issues.

 

service as in changing trans fluid? not sure there is any other services to do on it?

 

Yeah swap out the trans fluid and change the filters

 

Does anyone know where I can purchase a valve body for 02 dodge ram?
