The Dreaded P2714 Code.. What to Do? (3 Viewers)

[civilianconcepts]

At a bit of a loss here. Read through dozens of P2714 forums for both LC100s and other Toyota 4x4s in general.

Recently had this code pop up after a loss of power and going into limp mode. After a restart, the car no longer has the issue, and after taking it to a speciality shop, they ran the car for another 50 miles without any issues. Shop cleared the codes to see if it would pop back up, and still nothing.

After a good amount of reading, I am seeing this ultimately ends up in a full transmission replacement more often than not. I am debating on the steps to take from here.

Should I begin with trans fluid flush and go from there to see if it comes back? If it does, would solenoid be next?

Any advice on the P2714 code would be very appreciated!

EDIT: edited the body text to reflect the situation a bit more accurately.

Find a shop who's capable of reading the codes? It's not the truck's fault the shop who has it can't do that.

A whole trans can be purchased and swapped in for about 2 grand, less if you do it yourself. Use that as a worse case scenario and go from there.

Appreciate the response.

These guys specialize in rigs like this and even list LCs on their website. They’ve done good work for me before, but a bit disappointed this time for sure. From my understanding, they’re saying there’s no codes showing up right now even though I checked the codes before I had it towed.

$2000 for a transmission replacement and install is a lot better of a number than the 6-8k I’m seeing on other threads. Any advice on where to buy one if needed?

Right now, I’m probably going to have them flush and put in new trans fluid. Run it until I have problems again and go from there.

I bought a used unit at a local scrap yard last year for $1000, took it to a highly regarded trans shop for install. Long story short, the trans shop didn't have the equipment to properly read Toyota codes either and actually refused to bill me for any of the labor, but it would have been about $1000 had they invoiced me. My issue ended up being in the ECM and wiring harness, which took a ton of extremely specific diagnosis to discover. If you search my username and "a750f" you'll find the thread, there's a TON of info in there, possibly as much as exists in one place on the whole net at this time. I know, I searched the whole thing

You'll need techstream to properly read the transmission codes. A standard OBD reader will not pull them. Had the same issue with mine until I put TS on my own laptop and started seeing actual codes.
