How much am i looking at spending to have transmission fluid pressure sensor replaced or repaired?

P259A Engine Code Repair - P259A OBD-II Diagnostic ...

enginecoderepair.com http://p259a.enginecoderepair.com The reason of P259A OBD-II Engine Trouble Code is O2 Sensor Heater Circuit Malfunction. P259A DTC reports a sensor fault, replacement of the sensor is unlikely ...

Here are some possible causes and steps to consider:

Check the transmission fluid level and condition. Shifting issues might be caused by low or filthy transmission fluid. Check that the transmission fluid is at the proper level and seems clean and red. If it is low or polluted, a fluid change and filter replacement may be required.

Transmission Solenoids: Modern automatic transmissions employ solenoids to manage gear shifting. A faulty solenoid might cause the transmission to stay in one gear. If needed, a professional can diagnose and replace malfunctioning solenoids.

Transmission Control Module (TCM): The TCM is in charge of controlling the operation of the transmission. It can cause shifting problems if it malfunctions or receives inaccurate sensor data. Check the TCM for fault codes and functionality.

Wiring and Electrical Issues: Examine the transmission's wiring and electrical connections, especially those to the TCM and sensors. Damaged wires, faulty couplings, or electrical issues can all disrupt transmission operation.
Shifting problems can also be caused by internal mechanical faults within the transmission, such as worn clutches, damaged gears, or a malfunctioning valve body. These problems can be diagnosed and repaired by a competent transmission mechanic.

Transmission Fluid Pressure: Proper gear engagement is dependent on transmission fluid pressure. Shifting might be affected by a malfunction with the transmission pump or pressure regulator. A pressure test can aid in the diagnosis of these problems.

Examine your vehicle for Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs): Even if the knock sensor problem has been rectified, there may be more DTCs associated with the transmission problem. Check for any stored trouble codes with a diagnostic scanner to gain more insight into the problem.

I hope this might be helpful.

No they are crooks! The genuine part from Mitsubishi is $120 and it looks like you could do it yourself.

Where is the transmission fluid pressure sensor? The pump pressure switch is located on the transmission housing next to the pump. The switch lets the computer know what the pressure is coming from the pump when the engine is running. The servo pressure switch is located on the housing near a band or servo in the transmission.

Both error codes you have are transmission related. P0736 is an error for reverse has wrong gear ratio. P0700 is a general transmission problem code

transmission fluid pressure sensor...

Transmission fluid pressure switches, i would say you have internal transmission problems, weak pump or internal leakage but to have four bad pressure switches is very very unheard off, i would have a transmission shop check it and maybe do a pressure test and leak test. it sounds like it may be time for a rebuild on that transmission.

Hello
The Engine and Automatic Transmission (not applicable to manual transmissions) in this vehicles drive train are fully electronically controlled by a computer called the PCM and TCM (Power Train Control Module, Transmission Control Module). When a problem like this or other drive-ability related problems occurs the computer stores a record of the problem (there are of course some exceptions to this, like the fuel pump, engine coolant temperature sensor and MAF sensor for instance) in the form of a fault code in its memory, to read these fault codes you must have the systems memory scanned with a special tool. Once the fault code(s) are read you then must perform the appropriate diagnostic testing to find and resolve the problem(s) DO NOT REPLACE ANY PARTS UNTIL A TRAINED TECHNICAIN HAS DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM TO AVOID SPENDING YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY ON PARTS THAT MAY NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. Also always check fuel pressure for correct spec for your make and engine type.

First off do not listen to Autozone, they are very quick to spend your money, they are screen readers not trained automotive technicians. No fault code with few exceptions tells you exactly what is wrong, it can be the sensor, the wiring to it or the control module (computer) that has the problem. The pressure sensor is inside the transmission a really dirty big job to access, so have a TRAINED technician look into this before any parts are replaced.

MANY THINGS WILL CAUSE NO DRIVE PROBLEMS.IF TRANSMISSION FLUID LEVEL CORRECT LEVEL AND TRANSMISSION FILTER BEEN CHANGED.SINCE TRANSMISSION PCM CONTROLLED SCAN FOR FOR TRANSMISSION FLUID PRESSURE SWITCH CODE.OR TRANSMISSION PRESSURE CONTROL SOLENOID FAULT CODE.LOOK FOR SHIFT SOLENOIDS FAULT CODES.LOOK FOR TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE FAULT CODE AND TRANSMISSION RANGE SWITCH FAULT CODE.IF NO CODES COME UP.YOU HAVE TRANSMISSION INTERNAL MECHANICAL FAILURE LIKE FORWARD CLUTCH AND INPUT CLUTCH HAS WORN DRIVE PLATES AND LEAKING PISTON SEALS.FAULTY TRANSMISSION OIL PUMP.HAVE TRANSMISSION PRESSURE TESTED.

PRESSURE CONTROL SOLENOID PART OF TRANSMISSION THAT CONTROL TRANSMISSION FLUID PRESSURE.YOU NEED TO GO ON LINE TO BUY EXACT TRANSMISSION MANUAL TO YOUR NISSAN.BECAUSE THERE ARE MANY SHIFT SOLENOIDS YOU NEED TO LOCATE THE RIGHT ONE BEFORE YOU CAN FIX IT.GO ON LINE LOOK UP CHILTON TRANSMISSIONS REPAIR MANUALS. THEY SALE ALL KINDS OF MANUALS.BUT YOU NEED TO KNOW WHAT TYPE OF TRANSMISSION IN YOUR VECHICLE.
