What this code means

Transmission Control System Electrical.

P0702 is a generic code: it means the same thing on every make. P0702 belongs to family P07xx — Transmission. Its page explains how to read a code and groups all its codes by part.

Gearbox control system

These codes mean the gearbox control unit has recorded a fault and asked the engine control unit to light the warning. They do not say which: the precise code is stored in the gearbox unit.

What you notice

Depends on the real fault: harsh shifts, a gearbox in limp mode, or just the warning light.

How to check it

Read the codes of the gearbox control unit itself with a tool that can access it: that is where the useful code is. Check the fluid level and condition meanwhile.

What to do

Have it checked this week. The car remains usable, but the fault will not clear itself and will fail the roadworthiness test.

Clearing a code switches the light off but repairs nothing: if the fault remains, the code comes back. Clearing a fault code yourself →
