Urgh turned out to be the TCM! It was $400 installed...

Crap. Sounds like I may be in the same situation. Our 2001 T&C went into limp mode with P0700 code. I did some research online and narrowed it down to a most likely failed transmission solenoid (an educated guess, just like your shop made). So I ordered a replacement and did the repair myself. That didn't fix the problem, so I replaced the input speed sensor, even though I had my doubts. Still no fix. So I am planning to take it to a transmission shop to have the codes pulled from the TCM (from what I understand, the TCM stores its own transmission-related codes and sends P0700 to the ECM/PCM as a notice that there is a problem). I was beginning to think either there is a wiring problem, which could be, as we have mice nesting under the hood, or the TCM itself is bad.

This would be bad. CLEAN OUT YOUR ENGINE! Get a can of GUNK! Get your hose, and powerwash that engine!

It is bad. They have torn up the inside of my Neon (they come in through the A/C moisture drain tube). I can clean it out but they come right back. I need to find a way to keep them out! I am going to try peppermint oil since they supposedly don't like the smell. Believe me, they have me annoyed to no end!:angry1:

Well, as long as you don't park your vehicle in the same spot and let it sit there for a while without being moved you shouldn't have *too* large of a problem... unless your area is literally infested with rodents...

I think they see it the other way (their area is infested with humans). We live in the country, surrounded by oak trees (food and coverage) and farms (more food and coverage). They reproduce faster than you can kill them.
