- In this video i go through the troubleshooting procedure to find out why this dodge caravan is in limp mode, if your having this problem this video will help you out, i also do some line pressure readings on the transmission through the scan tool and do a transmission service, this video also shows the importance of having the right tool for the job, not all scan tools are made equal, some read data on a different protocol via the can communication line in the vehicle, i almost couldn't fix this vehicle because of that reason

That metal piece you found in the transmission pan looks like its coming from the lower drum in the transmission compounder assembly. When I first bought my Grand Caravan I brought it to the Chrysler Dealership for a transmission fluid change. Evidently they did not refill it to the proper level and it was low in transmission fluild for 50000 miles. My reverse went out. When my friend and I dropped the transmission pan there were all sorts of metal pieces which came from the transmission compounder. We replaced it and it worked. Its a lot of labor to replace since you have to take the valve body out, plus take out the caliper and brakes just to get to it, but we did it, and the part was $400 plus speciality tools being around $200
That’s Awesome work
These vehicles oem trans fluid can be bought on amazon etc,...Mopar fluid, also calls for that HOAT Mopar coolant which is what i have used and seems to work well in them.
Great video my friend i just did one on a 2019 Buick Encore with 45000 miles on it 😊
Thank you & happy new year 🎊
Im having the same problem. Unfortunately i was the sucker that bought new valve body and solenoid pack. Put them in it didnt fix the problem. But after watching your video if this works for my journey Ill have a new valve body and solenoid pack hopefully for another 100k miles.
This the exact reason I make these videos, to hopefully help someone out
Thanks for watching
I'm wondering if the transmission being over filled was the initial cause of the code being set along with the limp home. Maybe causing the pressure to be to high. Thanks for a very informative video! Keep up the good work!
That’s a good question & I also was wondering the same thing
I can say this, the customer has had the vehicle for about 3 months with no issues
Thanks for watching
Hopefully that saved it, I abandoned the Chrysler vans while back, you must buy them with low miles and flush and fill the transmissions RELIGIOUSLY (max 30k) or you will be replacing them, I'm shocked it lasted 175k. I would sell it and slide over into a Sienna while it is working and call it a day.
I definitely agree with that statement
I have a 2019 caravan gt I just bought. 240k miles. Previous owner changed transmission at a 180k miles. The transmission shifts perfectly but the dreaded whining sound at low speeds. No check engine light but scanned it and had the p0868 code. I changed filter, fluid, pressure sensor & the small Torque Converter Clutch Solenoid (All OEM). The whine sound reduced a bit the 1st day but was still there. Today i got the p1745 code. Transmission mechanic told me to change the torque converter and the shift solenoid. What do you think I should do? Any help is appreciated. This mechanic did not reset anything as well.
Honestly I would recommend a low mileage used transmission
You will probably find yourself spending money & it never gets fixed
Go for the sure thing
You got parts from the lower drum in the oil pan!
i have a 2009 chrysler town and country withe the 3.8 V-6 engine with the 62TE 6 speed transmission. it went into limp mode a month ago and will not shift into the higher gears. but when i pull over and stop and put it in park and drive it again it will shift just fine in all gears for around 1 mile to sometimes 3 or 4 miles then drops back into limp mode. i have since taken off the trans pan and changed the fluid and filter with no change. i have a code of PO76A SHIFT SOLENOID H MALFUNCTION. i have seen on many you tube videos that if you replace the solenoid pack that will fix this issue. WHAT DO YOU THINK ?
This is a generic code that can be generated by several issues, bad solenoid, slippage or even lack of pressure , unfortunately there isn’t a straight forward answer that would result in a quick fix, I would suggest taking to a technician in your area that’s known for being able to diagnose transmission issues, sorry I couldn’t give i just don’t want to suggest a part that doesn’t fix it then your back to square one only with less money in pocket now, I’m really into doing a proper diagnosis for my customers, keep me posted
I run a fleet of these vans andbi had 1 with the same issue you drive it for a few miles and it goes into limp mode but you restart the car and its fine agian.it ended being a computer these computers are very well known to go and the transmission control module is built into these computers
I have a 2013 Chrysler 200 with the same code p1745 were should i start?
Step1 Find a scan tool that can reset the pressure learned values in the transmission, you can’t clear the code without resetting
Step to2 Drain transmission fluid & put back the proper fluid
whats a scanner i can use to clear the code? its been hard to find the proper scan tool for a 2011 Dodge Grand Caravan
Snap on verus
Try the Cgsulit OBD2 Scanner, All System Code Reader for Dodge Chrysler Jeep Car SC530. Costs about $150 and does clear the VLP code. Not difficult to understand and use.

Hi i got those code P1745 and PO868 but when i was driving my car got overheated and the check engine light was on and a check the code so does that codes overheating the car
Routan 2012
No that code is related to a transmission problem
where did you get that dipstick from?
Autozone
That versus D10 is not cheap I need one ☝️ for like a one time use
Very impressive video tho my dodge is doing the same also scared imma blow it up
Just unplug your battery for 5 minutes
this didnt work for me
@@christopherbehrens1373 A better solution is to unplug the battery, and keep the positive and negative cables touched together for a few minutes. It causes a dead short discharging the capacitors in the ecm/tcm, and basically erases any stored codes. I've done this many times when I didn't have my bidirectional scan tool.
Stupid car I bought 2016 sxt brand new and transmission gone after 138 K...K.M
