Default Re: I reset the TCM/TCU - Still doesn't shift.

If I'd have to make a guess I'd say a solenoid is stuck.
When I originally scanned it, I pulled code p0715. "Turbine/Input Shaft Speed Sensor Circuit"

Replaced the plate - filled it with the proper amount (checked with dipstick tool) made sure I spent a good amount of time in each reverse, neutral and drive as well. Still every time I change gears, it jolts.

Unplugged TCM (little black box by the passenger floorboard) I unplugged both plugs and let it sit for 15 mins. Afterwards, it shifted a bit harder than before I unplugged it. But still not as hard as when it originally got the problem. Originally it would slam gears and the whole car would jolt. Now it doesn't slam them as hard.

I cleared the code with my basic scanner before trying the tcm reset - code came back on immediately after a test drive around the block to see if it would come out of first gear. Well it did not, and the manual mode for shifting does not work either. So still in limp mode.

My manager at work has the snap on scanner with the 39 (I think its a 39 pin) connector to check it out. Hopefully that will work.

So as of now I still have the code p0715
