A P0768 code means that the transmission is not shifting when the computer expects it to. Possible causes could be dirty transmission fluid (fluid and filter need changing) or simply low transmission fluid.

If your fluid level is correct and if it is clean, then it's likely that there is a problem with the shifting solenoid.

However, keep this in mind. If the error code was caused by a one time problem (e.g. towing a heavy load up a high or steep hill), it's possible the system is telling you the transmission did not shift as expected. To determine if this was an intermittent problem, you can clear the code and see if it reappears. An intermittent problem will also cancel itself after a certain number of starts if the problem is not detected again.

P0700: what is the transmission controller?

from your statement you are going about the codes the wrong way
you take the car in to a shop that has a scanner ( autozone or the like )and the scanner reads out the codes
Then you determine what those codes refer to and fix them
code p 0700 refers to transmission control module(TCM)/mil---malfunction ===causes wiring---TCM
code p 0755 refers to shift solenoid (SS) B--circuit malfunction===causes --wiring---shift solenoid --ECM/TCM
code p 0300 is random misfiring and the last number of that code p 0301,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 is the cylinder that is misfiring

Error codes po700 and po768

po768 is shift solenoid "d" control wire open or shorted. p0700 is a generic code that the transmission send to the ecm and is not relivant at all. to fix the first code p0768 you will need to know if the wire is broken or damaged from the solenoid to the computer the solenoid is inside the transmission and the computer is under the dash board infront of the steering wheel. here is the procedure you need to take to diagnose it.

Get a readout from the car's computer to see if there is a trouble code stored, which will give a good clue to the problem.

Camrys of this age often have a shift solenoid fail in the transmission, which will cause the symptoms you describe,

Does anyone know what a transmission code 63 is for 1993 toyota t-100 with an a340e transmission? Thanks

On the a340e transmission that would be a shift solenoid circuit malfunction. You can purchase a "solenoid kit" that comes with two solenoids and mounting bracket, they can be easily replaced by dropping the transmission pan. They are attached with a single bolt (10mm)---Remove the bolt, unplug them from the wiring harness and pop them out of the ports they are seated in. Lightly coat the o-rings of the new solenoids with some ATF and insert them into their ports.
Good luck, i hope this helps.

1991 accord, auto trans: green sport light is flashing. WHY???

It is either your Vehicle Speed Sensor (easy to change) or your Automatic Transmission Computer (capacitors burn out on these boards, there is a fix for this too, the picture is at the bottom of this page). You need to diagnose by removing the lower right plastic kick panel on the passenger side. There you will find a blue plug. With the car OFF stick a paper clip, wire or stuff the plug with foil to make electrical connection so that the two terminals are touching. Then, turn the ignition to ON (not enough to start it though, just power it up). When you do this, count the blinks in the "S Light" or count your blinking Check Engine Light. Both are different but can refer to different things wrong with your car. A long blink is the first number and the short blinks that follow are the second number.
So imagine this as being 14 : ___ _ _ _ _

Below is a decoding chart:

P0700, P0750 and P0755 codes I was driving at 65 mph and the 2003 Dodge Caravan down shifter to low gear and the check engine light came on. It will not ship to high gear.

P0700 (M)
Check Transmission DTC's
This code indicates that the EATX (Transmission controller) has an active fault and has illuminated the MIL via a BUS message. The specific fault must be acquired from the EATX via a DRBIII tool. (Input or Output Speed Sensor failures often cause this code and are a common failure part on WJ Grand Cherokees

P0750
Shift Solenoid circuit.
Note: If code P1767 (Transmission Relay Always On) is also present: Replace transmission solenoid assembly. See note provided. When transmission is in limp mode the relay that provides power to the solenoid group is switched off. This is normal and is designed to provide operation in one gear only. Engineering department suggests to replace transmission solenoid assembly anytime these two trouble codes occur together. See applicable service manual section (21) for solenoid assembly replacement directions. IMPORTANT: When performing this repair always check torque on all valvebody accumulator cover plate screws. Proper torque specification is 70 inch pounds. If any accumulator cover plate screws are damaged or missing replace the valvebody assembly. NOTE: If any other trouble codes are present do not replace solenoid assembly. See test in the applicable Transmission Diagnostic Procedures Manual

P0755
Shift Solenoid B
