I have the engine manual transmission light coming on and it won't start most of the time. If I do get it started it won't select a gear. After crawling in 1st it cranks out. Error codes came back as 7E8 and 7E9 - Any ideas?

Vehicle: 2005 Mazda Mazda2 1.4L Diesel

7E8 and 7E9 these are not codes what they are are system 7E8 is for the engine powertrain and 7E9 is for the transmission powertrain, go to the menu 7E8 if it list a DTC (diagnostic trouble code) select it, and it would read a P code such as P0XXX or P1XXX same with 7E9

The codes 7E9 and 7E8 are not OBDII codes. When the OBDII scanner plugs in your vehicle, the OBDII scanner gets the 7E9 and 7E8 ($7E9 and $7E8) codes from the ECM. The codes are a menu of systems that the OBDII scanner can access. OBDII scanner interprets the codes and displays the menu. Some scanners can't solve these codes and show the codes instead of the interpretation. Clicking on the code menu will read the OBDII codes (e.g. P0420 or P0455), if any, from that system.

Menu Code 7E8 ($7E8): Engine System

Menu Code 7E9 ($7E9): Transmission System
