Attention: TDR Forum Junkies I was driving steady state, cruise on at 65 mph, the attitude started displaying exhaust temp alert somewhere north of 2300 degrees so I pulled over to do a look see. I would imagine if it REALLY was 2300 degrees I could at least see some noticeable conditions on the exhaust and turbo. I saw nothing glowing cherry red so I disconnected power to the edge with the engine off and key removed. I then started the truck up and it would only give me about 50% engine power as I drove down the road. When I got to my destination, I flipped the key to get the codes and it dropped a P0700.
After some googling the P0700 is a transmission problem. It seems to be shifting fine. I just replaced the governor solenoid and sensor, installed a new filter, and adjusted the bands. The front band has very little adjustment left.
After I got home and shut it down, I plugged the edge back in and it resumed normal operation aside from the transmission code and lack of power.
This is my first diesel and it is leaving a bad taste in my mouth.
What should I look for?
