Car shakes at 60 stays in second gear. Lights came on. Is this the turbine sensor? Where can I locate that on my vehicle to replace it?

The P1707 code refers to the Park/Neutral Position (PNP) Switch Malfunction. So this will cause the transmission to have issues. I don't see the turbine sensor code which is:

P0715 - Input/Turbine Speed Sensor Circuit Malfunction
P0716 - Input/Turbine Speed Sensor Circuit Range/Performance Problem
P0717 - Input/Turbine Speed Sensor Circuit No Signal
P0720 - Output Speed Sensor Circuit Malfunction (sometimes mistaken for input sensor issues)

Here is how to change out the gear range sensor (Park/Neutral) which is inside the gear shifter. Clear the codes once the job is completed. Check out the images (below).
