Shift Linkage
Damaged or out of adjustment	Inspect and repair as required. Verify linkage adjustment. Refer to AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE/TRANSMISSION EXTERNAL CONTROLS .
NOTE: The transmission control module (TCM) is integrated into the mechatronic assembly. If installing a new transaxle or a mechatronic assembly, the TCM will need to be checked and recalibrated (reflashed) to the latest level calibration available. Transmission Range Sensor
Incorrectly installed	Bolts loose. Tighten to specification
Seals damaged, missing, installed incorrectly	Inspect. Repair as required.
Fluid Tubes and Seals between the TR and the mechatronic assembly - worn, damaged, loose, leaking	Inspect. Install new as required.
Transmission Range Sensor - damaged, installed incorrectly	Inspect. Repair as required.
Transmission Range Sensor - Electrical connector at the mechatronic assembly - damaged, installed incorrectly, not connected	Inspect. Repair as required.
NOTE: The transmission control module (TCM) is integrated into the mechatronic assembly. If installing a new transaxle or a mechatronic assembly, the TCM will need to be checked and recalibrated (reflashed) to the latest level calibration available. Incorrect Pressures
Low pressure	Check pressure PIDs. If pressures are low, check the following possible components: fluid filter, mechatronic assembly and seals between mechatronic and TR assembly.
