2011 LR4 L319 with 101K miles rather suddenly started throwing a general transmission failure when shifting from D to N, R, or P. GAP IID tool shows "general electrical failure" of the transmission control module (TCM). Investigation by local mechanic concluded an electronics problem in the (TCM), but they didn't want to go further because in this particular vehicle the TCM must be programmed to the vehicle.
The nearest dealer is Salt Lake City, 400 miles away...so I took it down there and they concluded that it is the reverse/neutral switch. Unfortunately, this switch doesn't seem to be available from ZF. So, the options are rebuilt TCM for ~$3K plus labor, rebuilt transmission for ~$4500 plus labor, or somehow get my hands on that switch (assembly) and put it in there myself (or have a local mechanic do it).
Anybody else have this? Searching forums I couldn't quite find a similar problem. Maybe the answer would be to get a TCM from a junk yard and pull those switches...
