Messed up my transmission

Good for you OP! Sometimes (actually many times), it's the simple stuff!

But I am curious, did your little Speed Racer shift stunt cause the fuse to blow or was this just a bizarre coincidence?

 

Scanned it using my scan tool and the P0705 is gone.

 

See its weird i dont know what it was exactly. The whole reverse thing could have been a coincidence

 

Could try it again to see if you can reproduce the same results??

 

So the part out is not happening

 

I should huh? Make everyone angry at me again for shifting it into reverse while in motion

 

I would love to see the wiring diagram on that because how can a back up light fuse cause an issue like this.

 

Yeah…nothing to see here anymore. LOL

 

they were too scared to even look at it lol

 

True 2 shops i called pretty much refused to work on it after i told them the issues.

 

This was basically my fix right here. Led me in the right direction

 

Perhaps replacing the part caused the fuse to blow??? Glad it worked out and good thread!

 

So this is a huge guess but im thinking my aftermarket trailer wiring harness could be the culprit. Few days back when i was researching i read something about people having a p0705 code for tail lights that shorted out or something. After i read that i went and checked all my connections to make sure they were tight and did a much cleaner job because that harness is connected to the tail lights. Im not sure if a wire mustve got loose and shorted something out. I redid everything really well though so if thats what caused it hopefully its fixed for good.

 

glad you got it fixed!
I was going to ask, why did the fuse blow. Regardless, it's still much cheaper and easier to fix a bad connection, than to replace the transmission.

 

Fantastic !!!

 

Much easier. Always room to learn with vehicles that's for sure!

 

Excellent.

You do know that the Toyota dealer would have found the blown fuse that caused the issue










Sometime after they installed the new transmission that miraculously had the same issue.

 

Somewhat related to the last comment:

My sister suffered a hydraulic clutch failure in her Subaru (the pedal went to the floor). Dealer replaced the clutch then wrote a note that after the new clutch was installed, the clutch pedal went to the floor, so they very generously replaced the clutch master cylinder for free. Took a few months but she finally got the $2000 clutch cost refunded...
