Description:

  • Gear fluid pressure signals are out of expected range

Possible Symptoms:

  • Inability to shift gears smoothly

  • Possible higher fuel consumption

Possible Causes:

  • Low transmission fluid level

  • Dirty transmission fluid

  • Poor or defective wiring on pressure solenoid

  • Defective valve body or pressure solenoid

Related Parts:

  • Transmission Fluid Pressure Sensor: Gear fluid line delivers gear fluid/oil between the various gear parts that need lubrication. The Gear fluid line pressure Sensor monitors the fluid pressure in the line. Problems lead to difficulty in shifting gears

Possible Solutions:

  • Do continuity tests and voltage drops for the Pressure Control Solenoid. If the electrical tests are within the recommended parameters, then using a pressure gauge you should test the performance of the Pressure Control Solenoid

  • A visual inspection performed looking for any damage or possible transmission leaks
