Picked up a 2004 TJ 4.0, auto transmission on Monday. I've driven it 100 miles since.
I was out for a drive, came to a stop at a light, tok off and it was like the Jeep was in 2nd or 3rd gear... and it did not shift up or down. Looked down and the check engine light was on.
Pulled over, turned it off, restarted and it was fine. Next stoplight same crazy thing as above. Shut if off,, restart,, all good... Did that a couple more times and seemed to right itself and shifted fine for the rest of the drive.
I remember I had an OBDLink MX. Plugged it in and I got the P1776 code.
Solenoid?
Does my Jeep have Coronavirus?
Pretty bummed that 100 miles after I bought it this starts happening.
The jeep has a meticulous service history and the previous owner took great care of it.
Any help is much appreciated.
Thank you
