P0700 = TCU request for 'MIL' on (IE transmission control unit has detected a fault and wants you to know about it.)
Reasons:
A communication line exists between the Engine Control Module(ECM) and
the Trans-axle Control Module (TCM). The sole purpose of this
communication line is for the TCM to notify the ECM to activate the
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) when a serious trans-axle failure has
occurred.
DTC Description
If the signal "MIL ON" is requested from TCU or it is no signal from TCU, the ECM judged as a fault and DTC is set.
Kia's first suggestion is to check for damaged wiring or connectors.
Try this: Disconnect your battery for about 5 minutes to clear the fault. Then take it for a spin and see how it shifts... good luck.
