02sedona no reverse got theses codes po770 p1723 po765 po765 po765 when I shift to reverse I can feel it engage but it would take pull

ok i could not find all of the codes but i could fins 4 out of 5. Here is a link for kia trouble codes you will find some on the obd11 chart and search the rest in the top search after you use kia in the manufacturer box. Hope it Helps. Kia OBD OBD2 Trouble Codes

Chances are the transmission being in 3rd gear is a safety feature to help keep you from being stranded on the road.
All of the codes are transmission faults which means you will need to get it to a shop for diagnosis.
The codes are for shift solenoids and torque converter issues.

run fault codes and look for faulty TCM and reverse servo .

PO765--Shift Solenoid D
You can google any codes you get & use
You Tube Video to get any & all trans answers,
& see all the problems & watch the units being rebuilt
I would guess on a 2001 car that trans is coming
out & be rebuilt

It is not a huge drama to replace this sensor, although the trans pan has to come off. While doing that it is a good idea to replace the filter in there. In the USA cost should be $400-$450

OBD=11
code p0171 refers to system to lean---causes ---intake/ exhaust leak---air system---MAF/VAF sensor---fuel pressure/ pump---injectors HO2s
code po105 refers to manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor/bar ometric sensor and circuit malfunction causes---wiring---MAP sensor ECM
code p0760 refers to shift solenoid--circuit malfunction causes--shift solenoid---ECM?TCM
code po770 again refers to shift solenoid.
code p0171 again refers to shift solenoid ---performance or stuck off.
code po130 refers to heated oxygen sensor HOS2 1 bank 1-circuit and have the rest checked .malfunction -- causes---heating inoperative---poor connection---wiring--- HO2S. So replace the shift solenoid and oxygen sensor

check your shift solenoid (A-B-C-D), i have the same problem. OBD PO700 (Transmission Control System) , PO750 (A), PO755 (B), PO60 (C), PO765 (D). i hope this helps.

Hi there:
DTC P0765 - Shift Solenoid D MalfunctionThe shift solenoid is located inside the valve body, the solenoids are replaced as a pack not individually. see below...



When any electrical solenoid or circuit goes down, the ****** will still have the default gears of reverse, and second gear. You could unplug all the wires from any automatic ******, and you will still have the default, or ''limp in'' gears , to get you home or to the garage. If you have no forward or reverse, then you have a major internal ****** problem.

Hope this helps; also keep in mind that your feedback is important and I`ll appreciate your time and consideration if you leave some testimonial comment about this answer.

Thank you for using FixYa, have a nice day.

The weld on the manual lever is known to break loose. First, with the wheels off the ground, with the lever in the park position, does the drive shaft lock in park? If yes or no sometimes, drop the trans pan. I bet the nut on the lever camd loose.

Check for trans codes then I would suggest a fluid change if there are no trouble codes, many times these kinds of problems are caused by a little piece of dirt causing a shift solenoid to stick.
