Check engine light
Hi Dan. As someone who hopes to join this merry band of Wanderlodge owners
someday, the maintenance things really interest me. I was able to find a
"Mechanic's Tips" pamphlet for the 700 series transmissions. It on page 13 says
a severely low level will cause your condition. The lowest fluid capacity it
lists is 30 quarts.
Hope this helps.

and cooler. When we checked it the fluid would not touch the stick so we added
half a gallon to bring it up to the add cold line. The service tech said I
don't care what the book says, the dip stick doesn't lie. Still I don't like it
when there is an unexplained difference. I also noticed a warning the the
owner's manual not to leave the transmission in drive for more than five
minutes while stationary because of heat damage. I can see how that could
happen in a traffic jam. Five minutes is not so long.
