Thanks as always! Now just have to find someone who's not shaky about doing it, especially at a reasonable price.

My locksmith wasn't able to program the fob OR the key, but he had the proper chip key blank on his truck, which he cut and programmed. It doesn't have the Chevy logo on it, but it's a small hole, interestingly. I'll call a dealer Monday with my VIN to see if there's an open recall. Thanks for the info
Yes have a Dealer look up your VIN number, you may still have the open Safety Recall. No expiration time limit on this RECALL. They do all the programming & etc FREE..(of course new keys included.) My New improved keys had to be cut as well. Then test new keys in your door, & Ign of course.

Good custom muffler shops usually have skilled welders. That's who you need for this job. Preserve your original OEM cat if it all possible.

I got a p0700 a few weeks ago, and assumed that atf level was low or high. It took me about a week to get it on a lift, only to find out the level was perfect. I dropped the pan, and refilled the atf and repeated hoping to get a full atf change. Code was still there, and it was a day later that I couldn't shift from 2nd into 3rd. I also realized on my code reader that I could see that I was getting the p0977 under a different option.

Spent 7 hours today replacing the two shift solenoids. But all seems well!

Good work! Isn’t it a great feeling to save money and fix it yourself! It’s a pretty easy job, just depends on your pucker level! When you lower the engine cradle.

Today is cancer exercise class at 11:00 , then PICC line clean and bandage at 3:30 some time in between we will go for a nice lunch . Then for real exciting driving, we can drive over the new concrete apron and park in our own driveway!

Glad to report that after tightening the fuse block halves and reseating all of the relays, I have no electrical issues or thrown codes.
Again my sincere thanks to all that contribute to this site.
Now to find and repair that pesky oil leak.

Glad your panel was spared any damage, Sleeper

Lonwane , post some photos of your engine we might spot the issue for you.

Today a nice sunny day, so we are gonna cruise the north shore of Lake Erie!
