After six months of trying to figure out what toy to buy ...I bought a beautiful 2005 SRT6 a week and a half ago with 30K miles on it ... everything is mint ... ran great for the first week ... now the gear indicator light is flashing from P to D and it goes into limp mode when this happens , sometimes it wont even start because it doesn't recognize that it is truly in Park ..... Not giving any codes ...The Chrysler dealer said they can't work on it , the Mercedes dealer said they don't work on them ... I'm scared to take it to anyone else . Id fix it myself if I was sure what was wrong with it . I've read a lot in the last few days ... conductor plate in the tranny maybe ? ....but again , no codes .... any help ... or anyone know of a good mechanic in the Bowling green Ky area ?

 

Yep, I would go with a conductor plate, fluid and filter change and replace the electrical connector.
Basically this kit :

BUT WAIT !!!!

A better deal here : ( includes MB fluid )

even without codes ?

 

Anything is possible. If you want to try it yourself, I would go with a shifter assy off eBay. They can found as cheap as $100 up to $200. Just an idea. I don't see how a conductor plate would keep it from starting.

Today I put in a conductor plate , a new 13 pin connector and a used TCM .... Still have gear indicator flashing and it went into limp mode ... got a po730 code ... any suggestions ... It has been running and shifting very good the last couple of days, but yesterday in went into limp mode again

 

This solution has got my vote, spilled drinks into the changer has caused problems before, so that could be a cause of the problem.
