100k and codes...... damn it

[bigtigga84]

Well rolled 100k. Got in today to take my daughter home another check engine light was on. Had p0700 and two low voltage codes. Could the low voltage have caused the tcm code? Trucks running fine

Tyler, I just did some Google work. From what I read, it sounds like the low voltage in fact can be a cause. Need to find out what caused the low voltage codes now.

bad sensors?

 

[The Assassin]

^^Very good possibility

 

[BlackedOutHemi]

When I broke my oil temperature sensor it was telling me I had a high voltage. So I'm guessing if it's high or low it could very possibly be a bad sensor.

Awesome on the 100k, sucks about the problems, hope it's a quick fix.

 

[bigtigga84]

i googled too and didn't see the voltage cause, thanks dan! replacing a battery or alternator is a lot better than having tranny issues. hell, i'm an expert at alternators as many times as i had to change em on my damn exploder.

lol oh yeah awesome, hit 100k and it starts fallin apart. knock on wood but hopefully this is all that's gonna happen. can't afford for anything major to go wrong........ gonna regret that, just jinxed the **** outta myself lol

Check the alt with a multimeter to see the feed back. Could also be a loose ground acting up.

hopefully this ends up being an easy fix for you

Mannnn that sucks!

P0700 is a generic transmission malfunction code

 

[jbmobbs]

bad terminal connection , check wires on back of alternator , check battery, check alternator , and look for splits in battery cable if none of them work its a bad sensor

 

[bigtigga84]

tested the battery and alt tonight with meter. battery was at 13.06ish volts, alt was at 14.7ish and 14.5ish with the fan on at idle. i know the battery is only suppose to be at 12.5ish but aren't there capacitors that could hold voltage? least thats what my dad was thinking.

 

[jbmobbs]

mine did the sam and there was a little black box on the back of the alternator is a voltage regulator i believe i ingnored it for a while then it almost fried my alternator lol i orderd one and they sent me 3 (idk why but ) and i replaced mine it droped the code and has ran perfect every since

 

[bigtigga84]

that would be awesome if it was serviceable. alt's on furds aren't. least the one for explorers aren't

 

[jbmobbs]

i could tell ya just about everything on a dodge but fords are like me tryin to speak spanish lol not at all XD

 

[bigtigga84]

loved and hated it. much happier im in a dodge again lol.

 

[bigtigga84]

so are the newer alternators serviceable. i can't find anything that says they are or a part. just whole units
