We have a couple of 1998 RHD legacy's 2.2 automatic trans- not bragin', my wife delivers mail. AT the moment one has the check engine light on and the codes read: "P 0740 tcc"- after reading the past questions and answers on this subject #1. Where is the "tccc solenoid"(torque converter clutch control)? Can anyone give some diognostic technique? #2. With what others have stated about paying the dealer $250 to not cure the problem, after some simple diagnostics it seems to me it may be time to consider replacing the transmission if I can be sure that the problem is inside the transmission. Any thoughts? The car has about 130k tough miles on it.
Second code: P 0483"control fan rationality check"- weird name- again after reading others experiences in this and other boards I have read, it is likely to be a temperature related issue - radiator or thermostat likely. Any simple diagnostics or ideas?
Thanks for your thoughts and experiences.
