so my car is displaying this error since Saturday, looking like going to have to replace the module.
mechanic it was at said he can't replace it as it needs to be programmed by Holden, but they are quoting $900... seems a bit excessive. also need to get the damn car to them as with this error it pops up with "Check PowerTrain" and "Service Vehicle Soon" and fails to accelerate. (drives fine though until this error pops up and only stops accelerating after you stop the car, if you keep driving thru it car performs fine, does not go into limp home mode or anything)
When my mechanic connected his tech 2 error returned was:
"Invalid signal from TCM (Transmission Control Module) No Communication from TCM."
don't suppose there is any other option for me here? my mech friend said it could just be wiring issue and may not need an entire replacement and he is looking into options. finding it really difficult to get any info on this however from Google or other mechanics i know.
don't really fancy throwing down $1k + for this stupid thing at Holden when its just a $2 chip ... GRRR
any info would be greatly appreciated. is this possible to do without Holden for example? lol
only thing i could find is this document from snapontools that mentions it but not really sure what to make of it
