1997-00 Dodge Dakota P0753, P1765 Transmission in limp mode, not shifting. Quick FREE Remedy. 

To add to the fix so it makes it easier for those a little color blind it is the pink wire that goes to the engine side of the thirty pin connector that needs grounded and man did it work great to fix the shifting thanks much

my 97 dakota was throwing P0753. Even though the title of this video says 98+ I looked at my pinouts of my pcm and pin 30 had the same pink wire. So I tried it, and it worked. Thanks boss!

I had the exact same problem only stayed in 3rd gear after changing both solenoid and numerous other things giving me the biggest headache I came across this video and it worked I couldn't believe it. This was the only video that had this solution and I am thankful for it. Best video ever!!!!

I am totally stoked!!! the logic that your free remedy fixed my '00 dakota sport 3.9l (first and reverse only till 2day!) breaks the laws of not being in the know and i am not going broke! rebuilt the 42re 3 years ago (me & a friend)and thought i just got something put together wrong. pcm is talking again too. so glad i didnt have to drop the pan, etc. knock on wood. thank you and god bless...!

Great job thank you for sharing I fixed mine and worked. I just realized that the ground black wire goes to the ECU metal bolt ground was loose. Also please check for corrosion in the bolts or the same ground wire. If that's not the problem then check relays and fuses/or the lighter pink wire like the last person commented..

I did this on my 2000 Dodge 3500 van and it fixed the issue. Thank you!

Great video man 👌 truck shifts right now thank you

Just did mine, if anyone is confused. DONT DO THE DARK PINK ONE! Throws another code lol, the lighter one is the one. If old and aged it may look more like a light orange or peach as mine did

I only had one pink wire on my 99 Dodge Ram Van 3500 5.9 and it worked

Thank you man, I appreciate you taking the time to record and post the vid, the 99 durango I was working on is hittin all the gears now.

I wonder if the other end of that pink wire is attached to the body or chassis somewhere and all corroded? Great job finding that is the weak point. Dodge will bill hours and miss it completely. Most transmission shops too. I have an intermittent P0753 code on my 99 Durango that keeps popping up and they replaced the valve body, for it to keep happening when it wants. Maybe I'll poke a hole in the pink wire and use a continuity tester on a solid ground! Thank you! And I did both O2 sensors as well. What a PITA to get out!

Nice video... Thanks. I did some testing and reviewed the related wiring diagrams. By grounding the pink wire, you are grounding the control circuit for the transmission relay, by-passing the computer and the wire between the computer and the relay. I am working on a 2000 Dodge Ram 1500, and it had both codes P0753 & P1765. This trick made it so the P0753 is gone. The vehicle still has DTC P1765, but at least it shifts now and is no longer operating in Limp in Mode. Unfortunately, I need to dig in deeper to help get this guy's vehicle to pass the state emissions test. On a side note, it is intermittently setting DTC P0443 for the Purge Solenoid control circuit. Preliminary testing is leading me to believe this is another problem caused by a bad computer or the computer has a bad ground it requires to be able to ground circuits to energize relay coils/control circuits. Hopefully this will help someone trying to save one of these old trucks...

I have a 2000 dakota truck 4x4 i just dothe 30 pink wire but same they run but stcok gears

Thank you this video help me, i got the problem fix temporary until i get the ecm.

Thanks brother 😁 te Devo 1 ya 1000 likes

I can’t believe this worked lol.

Mine has absolutely throw me a curveball I don't know what to do it's not throwing any codes it won't let me go faster than 25 miles an hour until I go downhill and pass 30 to 35 miles an hour then it will shift no problem until I slow back down the RPMs would jump up all the way up to the 5000rpm and still not go any faster than 25 miles per hour I don't know if that's the governor switch I don't know if that's a shift solenoid problem I don't know if that's a speed sensor problem but I do know it's not the torque converter because I just replace that with a brand new one I am just about broke and cannot afford to send it to the shop but Santa's throwing no codes I have no idea what to do so if someone can help me I would very much appreciate it

I got the same issue giving me P0753. Will a new PCM get rid of the code?

Witch cable goes directly to the governor presure ,on a durango dodge 4c4 98??

Im working on my girlfriends 2002 dodge durango 4.7 … after putting dual exhaust on it over 2 years ago she lost drive and overdrive … i still have to change the sensor on the pass side of the transmission behind the heat shield … it will be here tuesday … i have changed the valve body the ecm both input and output sensors on the driver side of the transmission …i cant remember what the codes are but im thinking if i ground the computer like on this video it cant hurt anything . Or could it ????

Did it ever stop working?

04 has 4 plugs coming off computer

Bro I got a 2001 Dodge Ram and it’s having the same issue. But it has wires on the passenger side and wires by the battery side. Where is this plug in located by? How do I know I’m not splicing the wrong pink wire from another board?

What does the O2 sensors have to do with it? Mine has no reverse and no first gear, seems to be stuck in third, with the same codes that you mentioned, the ground trick did not work, but the converter was cut out of mine

Would this Work On A 4.0 jeep Wj with the 42re. I'm also throwing a torque converter clutch circuit electrical code

My truck goes in reverse but not forward. Will this still work?

What pin out are you useing because 04 is different wiring and computer

would this fix reverse takes long to engage?

Hey man I only see one pink wire another pink with black stripe and then there's one close to the pink one but it's kinda orange looking any further tips? Thanks

We have a dodge dakota 1997 v6 we just replaced the pcm new and progamed . The truck runs but the rpm going 5000 and still not shifting. Will this method work? And fix it?

How is the truck running with the added ground wire?

Is this basically the same as jumping the trans relay?

I have a 98 4x4 durango and i have a problem with the third 3 gear,i wanna try what you did with yours,but the one i have dont have two pink wires it has just one pink wire??what should ido??

So just don't wear for the 06

What gauge wire you use????

do you think this could possibly be a fix for my 05 Dakota 3.7 2wd? I changed the solenoid and then I only had 1st and 2nd. now it's in lump mode

The Shifter solenoid replacement (dropping the pan) is dodge is stuck in 1st and 2nd gear. This only a stuck in3rd fix?

My 2000 dakota only has a handful of wires coming from the middle white plug and pink is not one of them
