my buddy's 2001 2500 silverado, 8.1L with Allison tranny dies suddenly randomly. Truck restarts each time, but it's a problem. Tach goes to 0, but lights, etc stay on. Initially, DTC pointed out faulty cam position sensor along with CEL. I fixed that, but now only DTC showing up is a P1779, which is voltage to tranny switch (or something... hard to research)... a bit of a vague DTC actually. It might not even be related. No CEL now, but just that DTC, and a dying truck.

any suggestions or past experiences with this? could be anything... good grief!

Thanks much!

Ask a tranny shop if they can tell you what it is and how to troubleshoot it. It very well could be a lose wire or even a blown fuse.
