When I try to clear TCM Codes, with the carsoft it says unsuccessful. The car remains in limp mode.

The question is, will my iCarsoft that works through the OBDII port allow me to reset the transmission and bring it out of limp mode, or do I have to have some kind of other computer that links to the car "under the hood" to do this??

All of my repair experience has been with pre-ESP cars, and I've never had this problem.

It's driving me crazy!
