What happens when a transmission pressure sensor goes bad?

An unreliable pressure switch may provide incorrect readings to the transmission computer, resulting in erratic gear changes, getting stuck in gear, or failing to engage gears altogether. This could clarify why your transmission sometimes has difficulty exceeding 10 mph and why it occasionally fails to shift correctly.

What do transmission pressure sensors do?

The transmission pressure sensor measures the hydraulic oil pressure in different transmission applications and helps to determine the shifting pressure precisely and reliably.

How much does it cost to replace a transmission pressure sensor?

The typical cost to replace a transmission pressure sensor ranges from $50 to $461, depending on the vehicle and the specific sensor type. Labor costs can vary from $78 to $297, and parts can range from $25 to $180. Factors like the type of sensor (speed vs. position), vehicle model, and labor rates in your area all influence the final price.

Can I drive with a bad transmission pressure sensor?

Driving a car that is showing a P0841, P0842, P0843, or P0844 code may be fine at first, but transmission issues will make it increasingly difficult and dangerous to operate the car as it struggles to change gears or generate torque.
