The battery has nothing to do with car being able to shift. Something else broke on car and now you have to look at transmission.

SOURCE: Check engine light/vacuum leak

First thing to remember autozone people ar not experts in the automative diagnostic world, if they were they would be earning 50 - 75,ooo per year as a technician, not 25,000 as a desk jockey. You need to go to a mechanic that has a computer to hookup to your car and tell you what the check engine light is on for. then you can fix the exact problem instead of poking around in the dark at the problem until you get lucky and have it fixed for a week or two,

SOURCE: The check engine light is on, the ABS, and the

The P1700 is just a request for the check engine light, and this is caused by the U2108. The U2108 is basically telling you that the Electronic Brake and Traction Control Module (EBTCM) is not communicating with the powertrain control module, or the transmission control module.
The very first thing we must do is verify that the fuses that power the ebtcm are not blown and that they are powered. At this point I would like you to verify that the fuse labeled ABS in the fuse block is not blown and that it is powered with the key in the on position.
I would also like you to verify that the fuse labeled V1 inthe power distribution box is not burnt and that this is powered also. After this we need to move to the ebtcm to verify that you have voltage at pins 15,17,18 and that you have a ground at 19 and 16.

This would verify that the ebtcm is getting the proper voltage supplies to operate. The end result of this may possibly be a faulty ebtcm, but at this point we really need to check these items prior.Feel free to contact me with any questions at this point! Thanks!

SOURCE: I went to autozone because my check engine light

P0440 - Check Gas Cap to be sure it is tight and not leaking air. Possibly just replace it.

P0410 - Secondary Air Injection system. Typically the check valve near the firewall goes bad. There is also one on the driver's side near the radiator. Could also be a fuse for the fan or the fan itself. The fan/blower is tucked under the left front fender - remove the wheel well liner to get to it. This is an emissions code only and will not effect the operation of the car. The check valves are roughly $200.00/ea. A lot of people choose not to fix this code.

SOURCE: 2001 chevy cavalier check engine light came on.

first i would have autozone give you a print out of the codes that were stored in the computer of your cars ecm.then check the trouble tree for diagnosing those codes.autozone sells a book on trouble codes.do you have over 100,000 miles on the car? the converter is covered upto 10 years or 100,000 miles.next, yes you can remove and replace the 02 sensor,with a 7/8 wrench and or buy a 02 socket.on a 4 cyl. engine there is 2 one before and one after the converter which is located in the exhaust close to the engine.hope this helps.

Dear Williammoody,

I saw your advice to terry69jam on Sep 26, 2009.

I have the same error code p1750 which shows up as "Mechanical Problem in Hydraulic Control System of A/T Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid." Your initial recommendation to terry69jam is replacing a tranny. Was your later suggestion on replacement of the shift solenoid can be made in lieu of replacing a tranny? Does "pack" mean the shift solenoid? If yes, where can I find a replacement and how much would that cost?

Replaced altanator and battery, now engine light and maintenance , and engine light came on?

Maintenance light is likely coincidental, oil change due, but you can go to a local Checker, Autozone or O;Rieelly for a code pull to give you an idea of the troubled area.

Check engine light on Toyota sienna 2000 stays on

have an auto parts store scan the computer for you.
They most often do this for free (oreilly auto parts and autozone)

Write down the code they give you. Should start with "P" (po442, P1406, etc)

That will be the problem, and they will most likely offer you the part right there.

Toyota is big about EVAP system trouble codes (chech engine lights)

But it could be anything, so this should be an easy fix.

You can even ask them at the parts store where the trouble part is located.

let me know once you find the problem code and I can help more.

I have a GMC Safari van and I have changed the battery and the alternator, It will start from a cold start but won't run long and shuts off. The battery will hold a charge and I have check the alterna

typically if the alternator is bad, when the engine is running and you pull off the positive cable from the battery it will remain running. Who checked the alternator for you? It could be that it is putting voltage out but no amperage. If it's running at idle and u turn on the headlights, are they bright or dim? It could also be that your battery has such a low charge in it that it needs to be fully charged before the electrical system can be checked properly. Autozone and O'reilly's will check your system for free. Good luck

0174 code

You need to remove the neg. battery cable for 10 minutes to remove the trouble code. If the light comes back on after that, return to Autozone because more than 1 code can be in the computer.

Service engine light soon is on. What could this mean?

If it is a Check Engine Light, anything from a loose/faulty gas cap, to misfire, to O2 sensor. Go to Advance Auto Parts or Autozone, and they can hook up a scanner to pull Trouble codes and point you the right way. They will be glad to explain what they are doing and how you can keep you car running better. ( I happen to work at 1) NO Charge of course. If you are sure it is Service reminder light, then It could be a matter of telling you it is time for an Oil change. Either way Stop in and they can help you.

It sounds like the fuel injectors are leaking or faulty. You should have an engine miss-fire code in the computer. Check the fuel pressure and compare to factory specs.
Did you clear codes or disconnect the battery? When you disconnect the battery the computer runs on a basic program until it re-learns.
