Got subs put in my car and now it’s stuck in third gear. Gets the code p0885 which is transmission relay opened. I would like to know where it’s located and if there could be other solutions.

Hello,

The relay is located under the driver side dash (see diagram below).
The code P0885 can get triggered due to a bad relay, wiring issue or it could also be the TCM (transmission control module).

I have attached the troubleshooting guide for the code below. Follow those steps as it can help you determine the issue.

Let me know of any questions.
Thank you.
