Ok look i need some serious help!Yesterday as i was pulling onto the highway my dam Check Engine Light came On...Again!!only that this time it was for something diffrent i got a p0705 code(transmission something) so i used the search bar and it told me to "refurbish" the nss...ok so i did that...and i put my batt terminals together for like an hour and i started it up and the damn code was still there!...iv already invested so much money into her aside from all the things she's needed to thigs i get her just so she can have new parts on her...has anyone had this prob. and fixed it?..or should i just sell her....

 

Hey there, its your transmission "range sensor" or otherwise called neutral safety switch. Not sure how much $$.$$ they are, but my buddie had the same code on his 98, went to the Junk Yard, i think he paid 1.00 for it, that took care of it, replace it, clear the code! hope this helps!

 

By chance have you done any work to it around the interior/dash board or anything, sometimes if the harness the sensor is connected to get's disrupted, itll throw a code!

 

I have done work to the interior but only for that same reason to check if everything was seated properly...its wierd because the cel came on as soon as i was getting on the highway?...if it was the nss wouldnt it turn on like when i change gears, or when i turn on the jeep?.

 

bump--still waiting on anyone else's opinion....anything would help..

 

Its gonna take so many key cycles for the CEL to go out. I wouldnt worry about it for a while. It will go out. unless of course you problem is still there.

Just wait a week or so, and see what happens. And ive always heard just disconnecting the battery to reset ECM/PCM. Dont think it would matter touchin the terminals together.

Idk, like I said it takes a few cycles for the computer to realize the problem is gone and it will cut the light

 

any luck with it yet?

 

nope!. now its worse i got a p0740 cade the torque converter or something ike that...im gonna try changing the tranny fluid and resetting the cpu today...hopefully it clears...the wierd thing is that the jeep is running perfect!...
