P1768 - Performance / Normal / Winter Mode Input Malfunction

P1733 - 3-4 Shift Malfunction
I would suggest you have the shift solenoid electrically tested to determine if they are at fault here or that you have a wiring issue or a failed Transmission control module. You will need the help of a transmission shop to diagnose this properly, do not just replace parts until you are sure they are the problem.

I had a shifting problem. The car would start in the wrong gear and shift at wrong times. I repaced the governor postion sensor and tranny fluid and the problem has been fixed for several years. Did you replace the tranny fluid?

The governor pressure sensor is the most likley cause however an inspection of fluid or debris in trans pan would be a good idea to make sure there's nothing excessive in it. Attached is a list of possible causes however the senor would be the most common.

  • Powertrain control module
  • 5 volt supply circuit open

your transmission is in "limp home" mode, the problem is one of the sensors on your transmission. you need to have an obdII scanner connected to read the codes stored in your vehicles computer. this will tell you which sensor has failed

Testimonial: "Thanks, will get that checked out"

I have a 1999 grand cherokee. The check engine light came on with a P1768 code. If I keep the trans in the "drive" position and start off, it feels like the transmission is in 3rd gear. No...

Hi, Your like your jeep is in limp in mode, this is to keep you from burning up transmission and to get you some were off the road, the p1768 code means A/T Transmission Relay Output Always Off. This should be checked out by your local shop or dealer. but you should make sure that the fluid level is correct, if to low there is not enough fluid pressure for the solenoid's to engage the relays. Hope this can help you out. If i can help you anymore fell free to re post.
Thanks dodge tec

Jeep Grand Cherokee Transmission Problems Wont shift

Tried changing the fluid? Often gummy deposits get gummier when cold and take a while to free up with temp increase. Of course, if you are good at it, you can rebuild it but I'd try that first. Generally I use lucas conditioner with B&M or Amsoil synthetic fluid in mine...seems to do the job.
