Question
djkurious
I am a proud owner of a 1999 Chevrolet Tahoe 5.7 LT.
I got into my truck today and the SES light came on. So I tried to reverse it out of my driveway, and it acted as if reverse was neutral, NO REVERSE. So I pushed it out the driveway and put it in drive for that wonderful trip to AutoZone. On my way there, I noticed that the shift point from 1st gear to 2nd was in the 3000 RPM's range (unusual). The rest of the shift points were ok, but it would not go into overdrive. So I got to AutoZone and the codes were P0740, P0785, and P1860. I researched the codes on the internet and came up with this:
P0740 - TCC enable solenoid circuit electric
P0785 - 3 - 2 shift solenoid circuit electrical
P1860 - TCC PMW Solenoid circuit electrical
Now I also read that the cause of this would be a incorrectly installed aftermarket remote start system (or alarm). Now I do have a aftermarket remote start system by the name of AutoPage RS-750LCD. I had it installed by a very reputable dealer that the alarm system referred me to (CarTronics). Also, the remote start system has been installed for 4 years, 8 months to be exact. I have never had a problem with the remote start.
Troubleshooting:
The only troubleshooting I have done was replaced the transmission fuse. The fuse was not blown, I just like to make sure of things.
Also, I have read on this forum that it could be the ignition wiring harness. Now before I go and order one for $80 bucks, I wanted to check with you guys. Is this something that I need to just drop off at the dealer and get a hole punched in my pocket, or is this something I maybe can fix myself. My experience with automobiles is not that of a mechanic, but i have fixed various things on my truck before (replaced shocks, alternator, spark plugs, wires, brakes, and things of that nature).
Any advise will work!
