Ive got a 05 with a 2.4 it was hit in the front and I picked it up todey from the body shop and it would not shift so I took it to the autozone and they said it was the 4th gear shift noid . and i see that the shift indacator in the dash are boxed out . is it hard to change thanks guys

 

yeah, its hard to change.

 

OK so I put in a new shift pak and took it to the local auto zone they cleared the code and it came back as soon as I pulled away do I need to take it some where like the dealer to have it reset . And it was easy to change .

 

what code are you getting?

 

po700 is the code

 

p0700 is just letting you know theres a code stored in transmission control module;you usually have to go to dealer or a transmission shop that has a drbIII scanner to access codes. is that the code autozone told you b4 you replaced shift pak

 

they said it was the 4th gear shift silaniod

 

this is for an automatic right? there is a technical service bulletin for 2002-2005 transmission solenoid valve don't think it applies on yours here a partial copy of it minus pictures they don't work right here

THIS BULLETIN SUPERSEDES TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN 21-008-04, DATED JUNE 1, 2004. ALL REVISIONS ARE HIGHLIGHTED WITH **ASTERISKS** AND INCLUDE AN ADDITIONAL MODEL YEAR AND A UPDATED DISCUSSION.
SUBJECT:
MIL Illumination - DTC P1776 Solenoid Switch Valve Latched in LR Position

MODELS:
2004 (AN) Dakota2004 - 2005 (CS) Pacifica2003 - 2004 (JR) Sebring Convertible/Sebring Sedan/Stratus Sedan2003 - 2004 (KJ) Liberty2003 - 2004 (KJ) Cherokee (International Markets)**2002** - 2004 (LH) 300M/Concorde/Intrepid2003-2004 (PL) Neon/SX2.02003 - 2005 (PT) PT Cruiser2003 - 2005 (RG) Chrysler Voyager (International Markets)2003 - 2005 (RS) Town & Country/Voyager/Caravan2003 - 2004 (TJ) WranglerNOTE :Refer to the following table for specific applications.
DISCUSSION:
If the vehicle operator describes a MIL illumination and the technician finds DTC P1776 Solenoid Switch Valve Latched in LR Position is set the DRBIII(R) can be used to access the event data screen and look at the "TRS Code" reading.
NOTE : The solenoid switch valve is not in the solenoid pack it is in the valve body.
TRS Code Reads TR2
If the TRS Code displays TR2 it is an indication that the manual valve was not fully in the OD position at the time the DTC was set. Check the shifter cable adjustment and adjust if necessary. Also check the shift control system for excessive friction and/or routing issues.
TRS Code Reads OD
If the "TRS Code displays "OD" then a sticky solenoid switch valve is the primary cause.
Perform the proper diagnosis for the valve body. Inspect for foreign material in the solenoid switch valve and plugs.
**FOR 2002 - 2004 LH MODEL ONLY**
If replacing the valve body assembly for DTC P1776 Solenoid Switch Valve Latched in LR Position first inspect the build date on the solenoid pack (Fig. 1) or (Fig. 2). If the build date range falls in between 3001 and 0603 replace the solenoid pack not the valve body**NOTE :The first three characters are the day of the year, the fourth character is the year, ie. 3001 is the 300th day of 2001.
