Hello.

The daughter is getting ready to trundle off to college in her 1999 626. She says she's having some tranny problems and took it to a wrench. The wrench pulled the codes and said it was a trans temp sensor gone bad. He also told her the tranny would have to be pulled and to take it to a tranny shop. Further research suggests the sensor is located above the valve body and no trans removal is required, just the pan, filter, and valve body. I don't know which codes popped up nor have I driven the car yet. The problem is I can't find any information on replacing the temp sensor (including this forum).

Questions: What are the codes which would indicate a bad trans temp sensor? Where can I find a step-by-step on replacement? What else could I be looking at?

I did replace the speed sensor last year and adjusted it correctly.

Thanks.
