There's this sensor right under the transmission, are you able to help me identify what this sensor is?
I'm assuming this would be the neutral park sensor. I'm just thinking but you guys know best. It's broken off the connection.
Thank you in advance.

Hello,

That looks like a transmission speed sensor. Nissan calls it revolution sensor.
See the picture below.

What kind of issues are you having?

Let me know of any questions.

Thank you.

So, the car starts up just fine, runs fine until about 15 minutes of driving it tends to lose power for a minute or so then it'll go then same lose power and then go. So, I'm not sure if that is related to the park/neutral sensor or the other code I had which was fuel temperature fuel high (P0183) anyhow I'm trying to find the sensor for p0850 I've looked on YouTube and the part looks different from the one on rock auto.

The PNP (park/neutral) switch is located on the transmission on the left side, close to the CV shaft.
I have attached a diagram below.

Also included is the diagnostic guide for the code P0850. Follow those steps as that can help determine the issue.
