If you suspect that your transmission is to blame because of a trouble code, it could be a small problem that has snowballed. My Olds was throwing me the same code. I reset the codes with a code reader, then manually reset the computer by disconnecting the battery.Then after codes first started coming back up, I used the code reader again and found it was the air intake temperature sensor ($15 part) on the air-box. Problem has not re-occurred.

Where is the transmission warning light in the display

In most vehicle, Transmission warning light incorporated in Check Engine light (ie, when you pull check engine light codes, transmission trouble code will be among it, if there were any), other case, its in your PRNDL indicator light (ie. PRNDL light will blink when transmission has problem), and in another case, you need to have a special scaner that capable of pulling transmission trouble code. I hope it helps :)

2002 chev venture engine light on after transmission fluid low

Engine light came on, doesn't up-shift

The transmission is in limp in mode. The check engine light is on because the transmission controller told the engine controller to turn it on. You will have to get the fault codes checked to diagnose the problem. Expect to find a P0700 code in the engine controller. Thats the code for a transmission fault in the trans controller. It could be as simple as an input speed sensor or as complexed as an internal failure. Either way have the transmission fault codes checked for a proper diagnosis.
