P1705 will happen if you don't have the transmission in park or neutral during the test, or if the Transmission Range Sensor is failed.

P1000 means the truck hasn't been driven enough for all the driving tests to have completed checking everything.

You also mention P1708, which you should never get. That's for the clutch pedal switch. You don't have one.

You did say P0708....sorry.

P0708 also refers to a bad Transmission Range Sensor *OR* a wire to the sensor. The computer can't tell if it is a bad wire or a bad sensor. You'll need a shop manual to diagnose this.

The TRS should be less than $100.
