My 2000 ls 75k miles gave this code and the trans solenoids,filter were replaced also spark plugs and an O2 sensor.But the same code keeps showing up when testing car on road.The throttle body was checked and cleaned also.Could it be a computer issue? Ideas anyone

This is NOT a valid code for that car. There is no 785 anywhere we could find on the tester or on line ford site. Please correct and get back to me.

Dear MAX

Just spoke to the repairman and the correct code is P0795 apparently is about "shorted solenoids"
I do not know how the engine is running now but it was missfiring prior to replacement of sensors and spark plugs

Thanks..

Here you are..... you need the solenoid pack for the transmission. That code,p0795, says that solenoid "C" in that pack is bad or the circut it bad....95% it is the solenoid pack. This is inside the trans with the valve body.
P/N XW4Z-7G391-AC (sometimes called a module) list is $377.76 and your cost is $203.99. Could this be the "module" your tech was referring to??? not the engine module like you thought??? During your "tune up" could you have disturbed the transmission harness somehow??

The valve is $259.24 and your cost is 168.51. I can have the module tomorrow if you want it and the heater valve is in stock now.

Dear Max

The tech is sure that the transmission harness is OK so the solenoid pack he just replaced must be defective. So please send me one XW4Z-7G391-AC and the DCCV for the A/C. Please bill to the mastercard you have in record and send by USPS Express Mail to PO BOX 11636 SAN JUAN PR 00922-1636

THANKS AGAIN
