TD says it's due to OBDII ECM and you have to have a reflash to make the shift points change.

We will see what code he posts back but I suspect it's one of several trans codes, under right conditions with my B&M shift improver body and changed shifting schedule of the reflash tune my Heath reflash throws a code, but since I have a scan tool I know what it is, only happens according to Bill on those trans that have a modified internal shifting body and not every truck has the problem.

are you talking about the b&m electronic shiftplus? that was my first mod and i have never had a ses light from it.

hold on hold on
i remember now what the instructions said. if it is the shiftplus, and 98 or newer than you have to shut the truck off before you can switch it on or off. 97 and older can do it on the fly. read your instructions and see if that is the problem.

i have read a few thread on code p0717 and it sounds like it could possibly be a loose connection somewere on the wires that a spliced into does that sound right or could it be something else thanks for the time
