Code P0756 Shift Solenoid B, What is it? V70-XC70 1999

Car: 1999 Volvo V70 XC 111K

Symptom:Flasing up arrow and CEL on, car in limp home mode.

1st step: I went to Autozone to get my codes pulled thinking it was going to give me 313 for PNP, but apparenlty that's not an OBDII code. I got two codes, P1618 and P0756. From reading post on this site and volvospeed, P1618 appears to be the code from the trans telling the system to turn on the CEL. The P0756 is supposed to be "Shift Solenoid B Perfomance or stuck open" issue.

Does anyone know what this is? where this is? Is this a DIY issue? What my exposure?
Thanks
Jack

    If it is a "shift solenoid" (which would be very unusual for your car), it's a solenoid located on the trannies valve body and not really a DIY job IMHO.

    I'd advise going to a dealer and having them hook up their Vadis PC to see what Volvo codes exist. Autozone people are not trained techs nor do I believe that all generic scan tools properly read all Volvo codes.
