Typical consequences

If this defect is detected, it may lead to the following problems:

  • Transmission damage

Functionality transmission oil pressure sensor

The transmission oil pressure sensor is an important component of the vehicle that monitors the oil pressure in the transmission. This pressure is essential for lubrication and cooling of the transmission components, which helps to prevent damage and ensure optimal performance of the transmission.

If the pressure is too low, this can lead to insufficient lubrication and heated parts. The sensor sends data to the vehicle's control unit, which issues a warning when pressure is insufficient. When functioning properly, this sensor helps prevent costly transmission damage. Regular inspection and maintenance of the sensor is therefore important.
