It's much more likely there is an intermittent break in the wire, most commonly a stretched or corroded terminal in a connector. All it takes is a momentary break for the Engine Computer to detect it, like when bouncing over a pothole, or from the engine rocking when shifting into reverse.
The way a transmission specialist would approach this is to first erase the code, then go on a test-drive with a scanner so he can watch what happens and figure out if there is anything he can do to make the problem act up. If the code comes back right away, that is when there is a hard defect that you can find with an ohm meter or voltmeter.
