Q:i have a 2002 jeep liberty with 154,000 miles. its a v6 3.7l 4wd autoThe engine light went on and the code is p0700. Is it something i should worry about? it drives fine ive had no problems with the car. the engine light just turned on. and i followed what the manual said to do and turn the key to the on position and see if it flashes. the check engine light doesn‘t flash.

(DTC) CODE # P0700Transmission Control System (MIL Request) Translation: Transmission Control Module (TCM) Malfunction or Failure. P0700 Information Code The Transaxle Control Module (TCM) monitors the malfunction of sensors and actuators relating to transaxle control. If any malfunction is detected, the TCM informs the PCM by sending a signal (P0700 code). P0700 means that a code has been set in the TCM. This code is for information ONLY. If this code is present, check for transaxle codes. So basically, the P0700 code is telling you to check the TCM for a transaxle DTC. The TCM can not turn on the check engine light so it has the PCM do it. The dealer probably saw the code P0700 and went to the TCM and pulled out the code stored there telling them the Transmission Solenoid Assembly (TSA) is bad. This is a good example of understanding what the codes actually mean. If the manual you looked at said the TCM is bad and to replace the TCM when you see a P0700, then it is wrong. You need to take it and have the transmissions codes read. They cannot do it at the parts store for this one.

Q:i am an high school student and i would like to to an independent study with a very cool auto teacher at my school, but i have no idea what i want to do any suggestions would be helpful thanks.

Hi Gina D, Does your school have an Auto Workshop? If it does, then arrange a visit and talk with the people who actually work on the equipment and take notes. If your school doesn't have an Auto Workshop, then visit a local Vocational Training Centre and ask or arrange a tour as indicated above. There are several components to any motor vehicle, namely: The engine, engine management systems, electrical system comprising the battery, alternator, starter motor, ignition system, electrical wiper motor, transmission unit, steering and linkage, brakes, fuel tank, fuel lines and filter/s, lift or transfer fuel pump, and for diesel engines, a fuel injection pump and injectors. Of course there is also the car body which for many modern cars is also the chassis and usually houses the front and rear lights and reversing and forward sensing devices. Vehicles have shock-absorbing systems and brakes are hydraulically operated. Many are equipped with abs automatic braking systems to prevent the wheels locking up when braked so that the driver has greater control of the vehicle. Most engines are water cooled and fitted with air-conditioners. Many modern vehicles incorporate self-diagnostic devices to help auto technicians to fault find or trouble shoot electrical and other systems. So clearly, you have plenty of study opportunities.

Q:I am wondering how to light for an Independent Film, it‘s a horror and takes place at night. I don‘t know what type of lighting to use, how much and how to edit it so it looks like it‘s night time? Please help?Thank you!!

You guys not got under floor heating systems yet? I guess you rip them up and replace them when the CE system fails under the tiles. OK for tile companies but not good for your pocket book.

Q:What are the differences between the 2010 Mazda 3 Sedan and the 2011 model?

The only changes for 2011 were- Power door locks with auto-lock function added to entry level i SV and i Sport 4-door models Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) and Traction Control (TCS) added to i SV and i Sport models Top-level s Grand Touring adds Moonroof Bose audio system as standard features.but Bi-Xenon HID headlights, Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS), LED tail lights, rain-sensing wipers and auto on/off headlight control, which were standard on the 2010, are now optional. The s Sport 4-door also has the option to add the same features noted above for the Grand Touring model. It basically makes the s Sport 4-door the same as a Grand Touring without heated, leather seats, power driver's seat and automatic climate control. Celestial Blue is no longer available on any Mazda3 4-door; it was available on 2010 s Sport and Grand Tourinig 4-door models; for 2011, it is only available on 5-door hatchback models.

Q:I own a Springfield 1911 A-1 and I would like to get a rail system to attach a flashlight. Are there rail systems available which require little or no machining? If so what are the best rail systems available?

Thats a tough question. Both are excellent guns Springfield Armory's Mil-Spec 1911A1 semiautos are, just as the name implies, made to emulate the original military 1911 .45 ACPs that have been part of the fighting handgun scene for 90 years. These are not accurized pistols with adjustable sights or any other bells and whistles. Springfield Armory says of their military style 1911s: Springfield's Mil-Spec pistol is a faithful recreation of John Browning's classic 1911-A1. If you're looking for traditional features and quality in a no-nonsense package, the Parkerized Mil-Spec is for you. I just purchased my first RIA 45. Paid 340.00 out the door, and I've got to say this was a great deal. I have 7 1911 style 45's, Kimbers, Colts, And SW's. I was very surprised at the quality and and how well this thing shoots. 250 rounds not a single problem. its an awesome gun!

Q:Battery light has came on for the last couple weeks periodically. Today the car wouldn‘t start. 5 mins later it started. What could be the problem?

Alternator going or is bad and doesn't keep the battery charged. Go to auto parts store and ask them to check battery and charging system. They usually all do it for free.

Q:How much would it be to just get a mechanic to look at it or is it just that my engine oil was cold that this happened the temp Gauge was way over in the cold side

If the check engine light comes on that means that you DO have a problem with your electronic control system! I would take it to an auto parts store and have the codes read (don't listen to what they say it is)just get the code numbers and come back home and post them on your question and we can help you! ADDED: And don't forget to provide us with the vehicle information YMM (year, make, model and engine size if possible)
