DTC P0700 (2021)
DTC P0700: Transmission Control System (MIL Request)
General Description
Engine resonance has the potential to cause severe engine damage. As a result, the flywheel is equipped with a high rate spring to help smooth out the transmission of power between the engine and the generator motor. However, there are still certain rpm levels where resonance can cause vibration. When resonance is detected by the powertrain control module (PCM), the rpm range is limited. There are also cases that resonance is caused by a misfire which can lead to an engine or generator motor failure.

Diagnosis Details
Conditions for setting the DTC
When a malfunction is detected, the MIL comes on and a Pending DTC, a Confirmed DTC, and the freeze data are stored in the PCM memory.
Conditions for clearing the DTC
The Pending DTC, the Confirmed DTC, and the freeze data can be cleared with the scan tool Clear command or by disconnecting the 12 volt battery.
