Re: I have three codes cant figure out

have you checked the charging system? ie, battery and connections are clean.
Alternator is charging properly?

Re: I have three codes cant figure out

yes battery is in ok condition alternator is ok too.  the car runs like
it is the computer or sensors are bad.  like its running real rich,  i
use a bit more gas than i think it should too. i am starting to beleave
that the computer is bad or needs to be reflashed. i know the TCM needs
it i beleave that is why it stays in 2nd gear but would that make my
car run like it has been??

thanx much for help keep it coming if you need more info just let me
know.

thank you
joe

Re: I have three codes cant figure out

The car staying in second, means it is in limp mode. The reason is probably
one of the tranny sensors is bad. What you should do is bite the bullet and
spend the roughly $80 and have the Chrysler dealership actually scan the
car. They can scan the computer and tranny control and get the fault codes,
as well as cycle through the sensors, to pinpoint the problem are. They are
the only ones to be able to scan the transmission control. And you are
probably right in it being the PCM being faulty.

Re: I have three codes cant figure out

Usually around $80. Your best bet is to call and ask how much for scanning.
Tell them what is going on, and that you want them to scan the computer to
see what's going on. Repairs on the other hand are what you have to watch
for for repair costs.

Re: I have three codes cant figure out


Yeah, having codes scanned on a diagnostic machine are usually more
precise than the blinking-count-the flashes method.  Your code 44 seems
to show temperature sensor fault.
