2001 Cadillac DTS tcc sensor

Transmission problem
2001 Cadillac DTS V8 Front Wheel Drive Automatic 170000 miles

my 2001 dts won't pass inspection because the code p0841(tcc solenoid circuit sensor) comes up. i can't afford to have it fixed by the dealer (about 2500). do i have to remove the tranny to do it or can i access it while the tranny is in...if so, how do i do it?

As difficult as it seems, pulling the trans is the easiest method. It is possible to lower the side enough to get the pan out, but that is somewhat a difficult process, and the risk for potential damage is greater.
