Title: Help needed
Post by: filesy on 14 December 2009, 18:21:21

Hi, i have an omega 2.2 cdx 2002, on the dash the light with a car and a spanner keeps coming on and staying on, i had it put on a machine and they said it was the transmission controller, code P7.
Can anybody tell me how i resolve this without spending a fortune.
I f the light comes on whilst driving it seems fine but if it comes on when the ignition is turned on it goes very slowly, as if the handbrakes on. If i turn the ignition off and back on it does go off.
Any help gratefully received, thanks.

you need to get the codes read in full, worth posting up your location we may have tech2 near you. Otherwise its worth investing in a 'cheapo' tech2 from eBay for around £30

With the 2.2 the cam sensor is a common failure, which causes other random codes to appear which has nothing to do with the true fault

need the codes read properly, not by the fly-by-night who did it last time.

Where are you?

Have a word with the service manager at Lookers Ellesmere Port aka Dr O aka Phil R who knows his Vauxhalls back to front and lurks in the shadows here sometimes!  :y  :y  :y

Hi, the code for my error is p0700
 EOBD Error stored by Transmission Control (TC) Modul B-06
P0700 MIL request from Transmission Control (TC) Modul B-06
Is the modul similar to a relay and if so where is it located or am i completely wrong, thanks for your help.

are those ALL the codes?  :-?

Things like crank sensor failing can give autobox false codes

Yes, thats the only code i was given, p0700 with the 2 possible problems but both relate to the modul B-06

and the codes from the gearbox and abs unit? Or were the code readers far to stupid to get that?

I think he is trying to tell you that there should be more than one code when read properly

Readings from the other units will assist in the diagnosis
