mikeb185 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Hi im getting the fault code C0700 when i plug my fault scanner in. Can anyone tell me what this means? Many thanks, Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONDEO TXS 2.2 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 It's an odd code for a Ford - non Ford it's probably ABS related - '' left front solenoid '' A proper Ford Diagnostic could tell you more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Digging about I found a bit of info. Is your car an automatic? P0700 for Ford shows as Transmission Control Module. Basically it thinks there is an error in the transmission and throws a code. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeb185 Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 if i reset it doesn't clear! i haven't really noticed any problems with the car, apart from it seems to make the clonk (abs test) randomly sometimes but has done that for the 3 years i have had it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeb185 Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 yes its auto but its defiantly a C code not a P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 If you read it as P0700 instead then- Generic: Transmission Control System (MIL Request) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONDEO TXS 2.2 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 I've seen this on other Ford Forums - the OBD reader sees it as a C 0700 code . . . ? That's not to say Clive's input is incorrect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONDEO TXS 2.2 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 The fact that the OP refers to a ABS '' clonk '' could be telling as this C 0700 code refers to an ABS solenoid issue ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeb185 Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 Any ideas where the solenoid is and how to test? Working on ABS is new to me! Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
