Trans failsafe

I would like to say I am a long time BMW fan. This is my 4th but I think this will be the one to kill me. Id like to say thanks for the help I have had so far and for the replies I will get. Now to the jist of the problem.


My 01 4.4 has 83k on it and driving dow nthe raod all the sudden the Failsafe light comes on along with check engine, the Xmas tree with ABs and the speedo goes dead?

I pulled the code and it looks like p1743 which sais its the E servo. If it is trully a servo then I can handle that. I rebuilt 2 bmw auto's and several clutches. But the Speedo going dead tells me its something else like a short or a bad harness. Let me know what you think.


Thanks
