P0995

2017-10-10

Description:

  • The fault code P0995 indicates a high voltage condition in the transmission fluid pressure sensor/switch 'F' circuit. The sensor/switch is responsible for monitoring the fluid pressure within the transmission. A high voltage in the circuit can occur due to various reasons, such as a short to power, a malfunctioning sensor/switch, or a fault in the wiring.

Possible Symptoms:

  • Illumination of the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) or Check Engine Light.

  • Abnormal or erratic transmission shifting behavior.

  • Delayed or harsh shifting of gears.

  • Decreased acceleration or power.

  • Other related fault codes may be present.

Possible Causes:

  • Short to power in the transmission fluid pressure sensor/switch 'F' circuit

  • Malfunctioning transmission fluid pressure sensor/switch 'F'

  • Wiring or connector issue causing high voltage

  • Faulty transmission control module (TCM)

  • Improper fluid level or contaminated transmission fluid

Related Parts:

  • Hydraulic Pressure Sensor: Hydraulic oil is needed for the gear lubrication system. This sensor measures oil pressure. This car's sensor has a problem which may cause difficulty in shifting gears

Possible Solutions:

  • Inspect the wiring and connectors in the circuit for any signs of damage, corrosion, or loose connections. Repair or replace as necessary.

  • Check for any shorts to power in the transmission fluid pressure sensor/switch 'F' circuit. Repair any shorted wires.

  • Test the transmission fluid pressure sensor/switch 'F' for proper functionality. Replace if found faulty.

  • Verify the functionality of the transmission control module (TCM) and perform any required repairs or updates.

  • Check the transmission fluid level and quality. Adjust or replace as necessary.
