Hi,

The code is specific to the OD pressure switch sensor circuit. What that means is the pressure switch is open or closed at the wrong time in a given gear or shift.

There are multiple things that can cause this code to set (see the last pic below). Most commonly, it is the pressure switch itself. However, the only way to confirm is to perform the diagnostics related to the code.

I attached the diagnostics below for your review. Take a look through them and let me know if it is something you feel comfortable doing.

Take care

Joe

So just replace valve body and it should solve it because I don't know where anything located on transmission.
