3500 rpm at 45mph.
Taking it in. Any advice on what to look for?
Don't know codes yet. Guy at tranny shop said input or output sensor or possibly internal problem. Impossible to tell until he runs codes.

on some chryslers if you turn the key on and off 4 times without starting the engine it will run the codes for you. On the last time leave the key in the on position but do not start the car. All this has to be done within like 15 seconds or so.

Is the speedo working? If not that is usually the speed sensor.Pulling the codes is the best way though.Rocky

A brief update.
Last night we dropped it off at tranny shop. On the way there, it ran fine, shifted fine and in general behaved well. The fluid is full, red and not burnt or smelly.
I did the on-off-on-off-on thing and all it said was DONE. Tranny guy said tranny codes don't show up in that computer, or at least all of them. The check engine light is still on though.
I think it is a sensor.

Code of 1776, Solenoid Valve stuck
I called the shop, he wants to drop the pan and "look around." The car drove fine for him and for his shop guy.
I told him do not drop pan, do not change fluid, just stop working on it. I haev terrible luck with trannys once they are opened up.
Whatcha yall think?

we've had a few of these come through the dealership w/ this code.there is a TSB out on this issue.it explains in detail what to look for and how to fix.TSB -21-008-04.it could be as simple as a cable adjustment....OR...contaminated valve body.take it to a dealer,have them take a look at it,IMO this will save u alot of running around and throwing parts at it.if the dealer is to expensive to fix,pay them the check out time and then maybe take it to ur tanny shop,w/ the exact info u need to get it fixed correctly.let me know if u need any info on the valve body regarding pricing,or avalability...Alan

I don't think u can still get the V/B new,that part # supercedes (sp) to a re-man #,the only way to get it is a re-man #.the re-man V/B is readily available and is around $350.00.also,IMHO...the V/B is most likely your issue and not the solenoid.in my experience w/ LH cars that have this code (p1776) is caused by a contaminated V/B.normaly caused by ,dirt in the fluid gets into the V/B and locks that switch valve in the V/B, as earlier stated....hope this helped...keep us informed on how it goes...good luck ........Alan

I got a quote for $387. It is the combined package with the solenoid pack and the valve body. Does not look too hard. I should be doing this Saturday.
I am going to do the whole thing. 5 new quarts of ATF4, filter, valvebody. Supposed to be 19 degrees, so that is right on par with this kind of repair. The only thing better would be if the truck needs a water pump, oh wait, it smells like it does......
Just for fun and for the folks at dodgeintrepid.net, i'm gonna photo as I go. I could post the pics here if anyone is interested. Hopefully by Sat afternoon, it'll back on the road.

To any of you techs who have done this. Is the "Quick Learn" procedure required as the book states, after I have replaced the VB?
reason I ask is, I don't have a DRB tool. The book says to do it.

you will always find something in the pan, does not always mean the trans is shot...except when you are at a tranny shop...they like to show you that and claim the trans is on it's way out...here's the price to rebuild it....
True, But if theres enough material to be sucked up into the filter.It's on the fence. And if you do a quick learn on it to reset learned values on a weak trans, A week later you'll be rebuilding it . Trust me

My 2002 intrepid has a governor on it.about 2 days ago my check engine light came on and it screwed with the tranny.when i slowed down it had a harsh downshift.only when i got to about 15 mph or so.when i took off it wouldnt shift out of 1st gear.now if i wiggle the plug sometimes it will start shifting fine again other times i have to disconnect the 1st plug on the ECU and reset it.basically if the light stays off its like bran new but when it cdomes on you have to play with it.now i put it on a computer and it gave me the codes of P1776 which I was told its the retard ignition and P0700 which was called the transaxle controle module.what do you think I should do?

I have a 95 eagle vision and when its cold it always goes into kimp mode. So I start driving get up to 40-50, put it in nuetral and shut it off and restart it, put it in drive and its usually fine. I changed the trans once and its less trouble to do it this way. It's fine if it warms up before driving. The only problem I really have with chrysler products over the years in the 90s cars, always the trans!
