DTC P0715/15: MAINSHAFT Speed Sensor

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
NOTE: For circuit and terminal identification, see CONNECTOR IDENTIFICATION  and WIRING DIAGRAMS  .
NOTE: DTC P0715/15 does not confirm an electrical problem in mainshaft speed sensor or circuit. This DTC can also be caused by a mechanical problem in transaxle. Any problem causing irregular countershaft-to-mainshaft speed difference can cause this code.
  1. Using scan tool, retrieve freeze data. Clear DTCs and road test vehicle under same conditions freeze data was recorded. If DTC resets, go to next step. If DTC does not reset, problem is intermittent, check mainshaft speed sensor and PCM connections.
  2. Ensure mainshaft and countershaft speed sensors are properly installed. See COUNTERSHAFT & MAINSHAFT SPEED SENSOR  under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. If mainshaft and countershaft speed sensors are properly installed, go to next step. If mainshaft and countershaft speed sensors are not properly installed, reinstall and road test.
  3. Disconnect mainshaft speed sensor harness connector. Measure resistance between sensor terminals. See COUNTERSHAFT & MAINSHAFT SPEED SENSOR  under COMPONENT TESTS. If resistance is 400-600 ohms, go to next step. If resistance is not 400-600 ohms, replace mainshaft speed sensor. See COUNTERSHAFT & MAINSHAFT SPEED SENSOR  under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION.
  4. Disconnect PCM harness connector "D". Check for continuity between PCM harness connector "D" terminal No. 11 (Red wire) and ground, and between terminal No. 12 (White wire) and ground. If continuity is present, repair short to ground in Red and/or White wire between PCM harness connector "D" and mainshaft speed sensor. If continuity is not present, go to next step.
  5. Reconnect mainshaft speed sensor harness connector. Measure resistance between PCM harness connector "D" terminals No. 11 (Red wire) and No. 12 (White wire). If resistance is not 400-600 ohms, go to next step. If resistance is 400-600 ohms, see DTC P0720/9: COUNTERSHAFT SPEED SENSOR . Check for loose PCM harness connectors. If necessary, substitute a known-good PCM and retest.
  6. Disconnect mainshaft speed sensor harness connector. Check for continuity between PCM harness connector "D" terminal No. 11 (Red wire) and mainshaft speed sensor harness connector terminal No. 2 (Red wire). If continuity is present, go to next step. If continuity is not present, repair open in Red wire.
  7. Check for continuity between PCM harness connector "D" terminal No. 12 (White wire) and mainshaft speed sensor harness connector terminal No. 1 (White wire). If continuity is present, check for loose PCM harness connectors. If necessary, substitute a known-good PCM and retest. If continuity is not present, repair open in White wire.
