how to fix P0700 code in my Ram 1500 DT (2019-Present)?

Solution

1. Preparation

• Gather tools and required parts.
• Disconnect the battery to ensure safety while working on electrical components.

2. Fluid Change

1. Drain Transmission Fluid

   • Remove the drain plug and allow the fluid to fully drain.
   • Replace the drain plug once draining is complete.

2. Replace Transmission Filter

3. Electrical Connection Check

1. Inspect Wiring and Connectors
   • Check the wiring harness connected to the TCM for any signs of wear or damage. Repair any issues found.
   • Ensure that all connectors are secure and free from corrosion.

4. TCM Reprogramming (if necessary)

1. Reprogram TCM
   • Use a compatible diagnostic tool to access the TCM settings.
   • Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to reprogram or reset the TCM if applicable.

5. Final Assembly
