Common causes
- Low or old transmission fluid
- Faulty shift solenoid
- Faulty transmission speed or temperature sensor
- Damaged wiring
- Internal transmission wear
What to do
- Read all stored and pending codes with a scanner. Several codes together often point to one cause.
- Note the freeze frame data (speed, temperature, load) recorded when the code was set.
- Inspect the wiring and connectors of the part named in the code for damage, corrosion or looseness.
- Fix the most likely and cheapest cause first, then clear the code and drive to see if it comes back.
