Hey there. Yes, the sensor may be located elsewhere on the transmission, but should be in the general area. If you google your cars year, make, model and include the words "transmission fluid pressure sensor location" you should be able to look at google images and get a general idea on the location. Best of luck!

I would just recommend the sensor honestly. Sensors, like all electronics, fail over time. Ive never had any of my transmissions flushed, nor ever plan to. I have heard horror stories of new issues arising afterwards. Best of luck! Dont fodget to subscribe!

Hello. If you have the same engine code odds are you have the same issue. The only difference is your sensor is likely to be in a different location on the transmission.

Looks like its more on the bottom.

​@@blueglovemechanicshould I take the dealers service word. On it "could be" more than the tranny fluid sensor . And get a second opinion? The Tranny Fluid sensor was confirmed to be bad. Thanks

No battery disconnect necessary. Just pop the sensor loose and unscrew.

@@carllemke4622 Ideally it will help resolve the issue causing your check engine light (and should be your cheapest option/first step). However, there could be different causes for the issue as well (such as TCM being bad). What symptoms are you experiencing?

@@blueglovemechanic so there was no check engine light but coming up the hill it felt like it was jerking back-and-forth slightly, which it never does so I decided to scan it and the code P0841 came up related to transmission fluid pressure sensor circuit malfunction that’s why I’m hoping changing the pressure sensor circuit switchwill help rectify the situation

Hello. The car did have some hesitant/delayed shifting and i could only read the code by scanning the tcm via my more expensive scan tool (it didnt throw the check engine light strange enough). After changing the sensor and driving the vehicle around 100 miles the transmission code never came back. I do however still have a minor poor acceleration/poor gas mileage/lack of power issue which i believe is being caused by a clogged catalytic converter. I replaced both oxygen sensors and got an engine running lean code. I pulled my fuel pump and found the filter is quite dirty so ill be replacing that to rule out fuel issues. I pulled fuel rail and turned car over to ensure injectors are not clogged as well. I already pulled the cats and was able to see through them but believe they are probably clogged to the point where the issues are moderate. What issues are you currently experiencing?

Hey there. Sorry to hear it didnt work. Have you confirmed your transmission fluid level is correct?

Hello friend, I have the same problem on my 2010 Mazda 3. I must change this sensor. My question is, is it located the same as in this video?

Hola, el código de verificación del motor es técnicamente universal, por lo que debería ser el mismo sensor el que causa el problema; sin embargo, podría estar en una ubicación diferente de la transmisión. Necesitará buscar un diagrama para encontrar la ubicación. ¡toda la suerte!

Gracias bro, es que mi carro no coje los cambios, osea la transmisión patina y me sale ese código debería ser ese sensor y listo creo cierto

Hi, I have a vw mk 7 golf 1.6 disel and have the same fault code and its causing my gearbox to over rev tru the gears when driving. Did the car in the video experience the same with that fault code. Will my fix mostlikley be the pressure sensor ?

@@MR-hj9db hey there. My symptoms were moderate but the sensor is definitely where i would start. Its a cheap quick fix and will get you started on the right path as a faulty/failing sensor will send incorrect signals to the TCM so your transmission will most likely have shifting issues. Worse case scenario would be internal transmission failure. Best of luck with your repair and please let us know what you find!

Hello. Im unsure what you mean by "pending code". However, replacing the sensor should (hopefully) prevent the code from appearing. Best of luck!

@@blueglovemechanic I mean this is what the scan tool says, (no check engine light on the dashboard) "P0841 Transmission fluid pressure (TFP) sensor A - range/performance problem Status: Pending fault present, Pending fault present during this driving cycle, Test conditions are met, Test is inhibited by other DTC, Test has not been completed, Validated and stored in non volatile memory, Validated fault present at time of request, Validated fault has been present during this drive cycle"
