Default Check Engine light code P0700 P0740 P1738

My check engine light came on and autozone's codes they gave me were P0700 P0740 P1738. These are all problem on the auto tranny. Any help would be great.

i think i can help

DTC P0700 Automatic Transmission
This code is generated by any detected transmission fault. Honda does not have a diagnostic chart for this DTC. To eliminate DTC P0700, troubleshoot the other automatic transmission problem(s) according to the DTC(s) indicated.


so yes your problem is with the tranny

code P0740 indicates a possible faulty lock up control system

code P1738 is a problem with the second clutch pressure switch.

if you need it i can give you step by step trubleshooting procedures to help you try to pinpoint the problem.

So, if it was me, I would have a mechanic look at it, or call YourMechanic.com and have them come to you.
