I have a 2010 jeep compass and get a code of p0700 what does this mean

ah you posted DTC's in a serial manner that is bad, that.
why not just one post and all symptom in just one.??
p0700s is transmission.
the FSM covers this, what it means, and what it does, and how to find it. the car has not AI, artificial intelligence at all, it just does
tests (called monitors) and barfs them when failed.

you need to use a real scan tool to see all errors, not just the truncated dash errors, which are useless , but cute.

scan it with a real scan tools that sees ALL JEEP codes
not just p0xx codes,
if not all this is just a wasted effort.
sorry but that is the way it is.

WHAT IS CODE P161B

2009, what engine there, and transmission?>
gas engine, or diesel and what size engine,?
in what country? must i guess, that too?

p161b
P means power train.
1xxx are factory codes, 0xxx are fed standard codes.
so that means, only jeep books are accurate here.

where did you see that, (in the cluster) ???????????
or someone scan tool> or someone yelled it over shoulders, and said it wrong./????????????
was it really? and 8? or b? (kinda matters, no?) accurate inputs.
P1618-SENSOR REFERENCE VOLTAGE 1 CIRCUIT ERRATIC
P161b ( see how easy it is to get the code wrong)?

rumor has it as
P161B: Battery disconnect/TCM internal.

clean the battery terminals,
or battery weak, voltage not 12.6vdc rested
or alternator dead, and not charging battery.

to find it, login to Mitchell.
and see all codes
http://www.eautorepair.net/Marketing/Default.asp


or you disconnected the battery while key was on?
or failed to clear all DTC first
then see if the code comes bacK>?
