Order of inspection
P0700 Transmission Control System Malfunction (Request for MIL Illumination) High
The P0700 code does not describe a specific fault. It is the signal the transmission module sends to the engine computer to turn on the check engine light, meaning it stored one or more codes of its own. The real diagnosis is reading those codes with a scan tool that can reach the transmission module.
