got offered a job building auto gearboxes, paying £30k plus and expenses and world travel, turned it down as they are way too complicated now with all the electronics and sensors alongside the mechanical parts

Yes. Hopefully it will be a simple sensor fault. Is it going to a Jeep dealer?

It'll probably have been a pressure solenoid in the gearbox.

it's a valve basically and it's normally operated electrically and part of the internals of the gearbox....something of a precedo science.
