We left town for a week and when we got back my sisters pt cruiser won't shift out of first. I pulled the codes. Got p0700 u2500 p07e5 p0101 p0605 p0400 p018. Talked to a tranny shop they said TCM was probably it. But wanting more input. Also how hard is the TCM to replace?

Welcome to the forum. Did the tranny shop put a diagnostic reader on the computer port to further narrow down the problem? Don't like that they told you its' "probably" the TCM. Are you letting them do the work or are you asking because you would be the one getting your hands dirty?

Here's what the Trans Control Module looks like. Not too hard but the manual comes with a couple "Cautions" when changing it.

I pulled the codes and called the shop.
