My car listed above e12 digs chassis number E12-230699 showed an engine check light and upon diagnosis an error code P0846 was detected, meaning faulty CV transmission fluid pressure sensor. This has led to high fuel consumption as it move in high revs and a bit of jerking. Where is the CVT fluid pressure sensor located and am kindly asking for an online site where I can buy it because Nissan Zambia doesn't have it and have tried eBay it's not there.

The CVT fluid pressure sensor on a 2014 Nissan Note is located inside the transmission assembly. Specifically, it is located on the valve body assembly, which is inside the transmission. The valve body assembly is responsible for controlling the flow of hydraulic fluid inside the transmission and the CVT fluid pressure sensor is a component of this assembly.

It is important to note that accessing the CVT fluid pressure sensor requires specialized tools and expertise in transmission repair. If you suspect a problem with the sensor, it is recommended to take your vehicle to a certified Nissan dealership or a trusted transmission repair shop for diagnosis and repair.

Thank you so much for the reply. Do you know how it looks a picture of the same and where I can buy it because here in Zambia, I have failed to find it?

I would just get a rebuilt valve body this will ensure the sensor and the valves are working correctly.

Hi Ken L. I have been searching Google and many online media who sell car parts for the past 3 weeks but to no avail. The reason I resorted to asking your media.
