This worked for me. Tying the positive and negative and waiting about an hour then even used the second part but didn’t wait 5 minutes
Now my truck shifts better.
@@Showyouhow2lock did u do every step . And how much did u spend on a new tcm
I don’t understand the process he said about the positive and negative from the battery and what to do exactly
@@MrRyanlipp1980 use whatever you need, bungee cord, Vice grips, clamp, whatever, but disconnect the battery cables, both of them, go inside the vehicle and turn on headlights, honk the horn, pump the brake pedal several times. Then make both battery cables touch connectors together, and use whatever to hold them together for as long as you have to work with, at least an hour, or overnight if you can. The duration really might not matter much, but the idea is for any capacitors in the electrical system to fully discharge, and different vehicles have different options, etc. Doing the horn honk, headlights, are both to help discharge capacitors in the system, and pumping the brakes makes the ABS pump work, yet another way to get all the residual voltage out of the rig. So at minimum, disconnect, pump the brakes several times, then connect the connectors on the battery cables for at least an hour. Reconnect them to the battery, drive it. The vehicle will behave a bit differently at first until it “learns” your driving style, and since at first it will have less samples to compare to, some of what you do at first will make adaptations somewhat exaggerated. For example, I made the mistake of using the shifter to hold gears while in traffic, and it took a few days of driving before it would shift into 5th gear on the highway, because it “thought “ I liked holding gears, but that resolved itself. If you drive very conservatively it will shift earlier. Please note that while doing the horn, lights, brakes thing none of that will work, which is expected. Always disconnec t the negative battery cable first. Always. And reconnect that one last. After all of this, it might not change a thing. If it does not change anything, whatever issue you had most likely had nothing wrong with the “adaptive learning” part of the program, and most likely your Transmission Control Module is fine. I’m not THE expert, but it seems like, as with our PCs, the computer gets “confused” and becomes much more slow to react. Think of this procedure as the same as the unplug, plug back in scenario.
just changed transmission in a 2015 grand caravan 3.6L vvt just take it into the dealerships and get a transmission relearn for all its worth if anyone is wondering about the Grand Caravan if yours is hard shifting with one or two odd gears
Hi! I need some advice. Our 2008 dodge caravan is not shifting gears. The transmission fluid was low so we added some and it seemed to go back to normal for a day but it’s not shifting gears again. Will trying what’s in this video help out?
Thank you, will soon try this❤ I have a 2017 Dodge grand Caravan, still have about $5000 payments on it. it started acting up recently, I’m so sad about this issue. I have great hopes of resetting the transmission will follow instructions. Once again, thank you so much. The saga continues with Hope.
Will this work withh a 2003 Dodge Grande Caravan SE ,?? thanks
Thanks for the quick resets.
This video is all over the place
Sooo... my transmission was acting all funny when trying to shift from 3rd gear to 4th. Got a C-READER 3001 (30$ on amazon), plugged it and it was showing "P1741 CODE ERROR" so I unplugged the battery, pressed all the electronic buttons + gas / brakes for about minute, I taped both positive and negative cables together for one hour and now my 2017 Dodge Caravan works fine!
Will this work on my 2014 Jeep Cherokee?
Did this video help you reset your TCM? Would love to know, thanks!
Will this work on a 2017 Chrysler 300
I just swapped trans on ram 1500 5.7 hemi automatic 2 wheel drive. Filled with fluid. Truck will not move in any gear. Any suggestions?
Me too same problem
Did you figure it out
Yes thank you. Eventhough the dip stick said full. I added more fluid and it got better with every quart I added. The trans fit 13 and now moves like it should.
will this work on a 2004 toyota corolla transmission ?
Is it an automatic?
How to do this on a 97 Dodge ram 2500 van 46er? Tyia
I have a Dodge caliber the gears is not shifting
Will this work on a Cadillac Deville? 2005 , it shift fine until it warms up! And then it throws a light with code p2763 , I guess it’s the wiring! I have disconnected the battery over night but I have never done these types of tricks! I guess I need to because it’s a old car runs fine for a hour then I have noticed a slip in 1 to 2 nd , I had the cpu laid over looking for a leak and didn’t unplug the battery 🥵so I guess I try this and see cars are getting to smart he’ll Cost more to fix a car than going to a doctor!
I have a 2019 Ram 1500 with only 29k miles and seems to be stuck in 2nd gear. Before this happened when cold or if I haven’t driven in 3 or 4 days when first driving seemed to have hard time shifting 1st to 2nd and made a clunky noise but usually afterwards would shift fine but now seems stuck in 2nd gear and engine light came on afterwards…😢
It's in limp mode. Having same issue now
@@jeepinb1398 I did the reset on mine a few days ago, fixed the issue. Pressed the start button to put in run mode, but don’t start the engine, don’t press brake then when in run mode, pressed and held the accelerator pedal for 15 sec. After 15 sec I turned everything off. I sat in the car and waited like 10 min or so until everything turned off then I started the engine and did a test drive. Everything is shifting normally again now. Took a few more drives for the check engine light to go away, and finally it did. Drove for a few days now. Everything seems ok now…
I have been experiencing the same problems (2019 RAM) It seems that at the time you come to a stop, the gear stays in 2nd, and after you press the accelerator the gear drops abruptly to 1st causing an unpleasent kick, and I know this will be causing future joint failure when miles add up.
Did this reset help with your issue. If not how did you fix it. I am having the same problem with my 2018 GMC Acadia @@pacino1234
My 2010 dodge I had no gears when I came to a stop I didnt even have park when I tryd to put it into park it was making a grinding noise leading me to suspect the transfer case was in neutral neutral I did the battery thing it worked but did it again right away anyone? Deal with this also?
Your transmission is bad my friend no electronic can fix that sounds like bad pump or broken sun gear something internally bad in the trans unless you transfer case somehow went to neutral and stuck in that position so the input and output just free wheel but try and put it in 4low and 4 high and neutral on transfer case and see if it does anything but also get someone to hook up a pressure gauge to the transmission to check line pressure that will tell you if it's the pump or not but this was a month ago I'm sure u got it fixed I noticed that after I typed all this out but I bought a 96 reg cab 1500 4x4 5.9 super clean for 1k but it won't go over 35 has all 4 gears convertor even locks but at 35mph its almost 4k rpms or higher so I'm praying the transfercase is somehow stuck in 4low but the selector is in 2wd so it does not lock the front dif but will not go to neutral or 4low but 4high works so was urs trans or tcase stuck in neutral
Will this work for a 2018 Dodge Durango V6
Did you figure this out I recently had this problem with my 14 Durango
Only 3,400 for a transmission replacement? I would think the labor would make it a lot more
2 yra ago my 2014 Ram Transmission went and at the dealership with parts, fluid and labor that was a $7,000 dollar job.
I'd only imagine with inflation it's higher now.
Not to mention Dodge/Ram has discontinued the Hemi 5.7 engine. As of Jan 2024 their new engine is going to be called Hurricane. Imagine the cost/shortage it will be for parts and possibly auto insurance going up if you've got one.
Yea, this person was being pretty generous on the price of a transmission replacement....Mine cost a little over $5K on my Dodge Magnum.
04 Dodge neon, Ses?
I hope this works for my 05 durango
Just curious, did this work for you?
@@tommy2122108no
Transmission was just replaced on my Ram 3500 now it won’t start, mechanic says we need to replace the starter! Completely frustrated! It started fine when we brought it in, could it really need a new starter?
Hello 👋 It sounds like the mechanic broke the starter when replacing your transmission because you have to remove the starter in order to access the torque converter bolts! The mechanic most definitely destroyed the starter prying on it or broke wires on hooking it 👍🏻
@@SMOKEY-JAYS-DIESEL you are absolutely correct! He finally admitted he broke it after some back and forth and ended up paying for it.
@@kelcaba7914 Yes, I understand. I own a diesel mechanic business under the name Smokey J's diesel and my employees break stuff like that too and me being the owner. I have to replace it because I know what happened. I'm glad he admitted to it and made it right 👍🏻
@SMOKEY-JAYS-DIESEL have you ever heard doing a Shift stragedy reset on a 2017 1500 Ram will make the truck worse?
Maybe he didn’t connect the starter back or blew the fuse , doubt it’s the starter you have to remove the starter to realce the transmission.
God damn you. I have to sit here while you give me an AI rundown of the wiki entry about what the fucking part is...
You don't have to sit there and listen to that. You can always stand up.
Didn't work
Mine won’t rev to 5000 rpm….
RPM’s are limited by the once to avoid valve damage
😂 5000rpm! Didn’t he say 500? Yes the picture said 5000 but I’m sure he said above 500 rpm lol
Talk less and get to the point ffs
