Sometimes, while I'm driving my car the gear indicator and the service key came on dash, however the car working and the gear shifting. Do you know what that? Please thank you for help.

This video will show you everything, transmission working wonderful sadly nothing on dash but the car runs good. I feel the transmission not working right, sometimes just turn off the car and bag normally, that's happening when the temperature below 90. Do you have an idea about it? Thanks.

Hello,

It sounds like you have an input shaft speed sensor that needs to be replaced. To be sure here is a guide to help check the codes with the input shaft speed sensor location below. I have also included the components of the transmission so you can see how it works.

Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know what you find. We are interested to see what it is.

Hello, I'm Danny.

It sounds that you might have fault codes stored in the transmission system. The best thing for you to do is have a CAN scan- Controller Area Network performed to determine what fault codes are stored in your vehicles computer. Here is a tutorial showing what is involved with a CAN scan:

Once you have this performed get back to us with the code numbers and we can then properly diagnose the issues your vehicle is having. You mention the connection you repaired might have fixed the problem. Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros. We hope you will use our site again in the future when needed.
