DTC P0793 Intermediate Shaft Speed Sensor "A": Description

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

This sensor detects the rotation speed of the counter gear. By comparing the counter gear speed signal (NC) with the direct clutch speed sensor signal (NT), the ECM detects the shift timing of the gears and appropriately controls the engine torque and hydraulic pressure according to various conditions. Thus smooth gear shifting is performed.

DTC DETECTION CONDITION REFERENCE

DTC No.	DTC Detection Condition	Trouble Area
P0793	ECM detects conditions (a), (b) and (c) continuously for 5 sec. or more: (1-trip detection logic) Vehicle speed: 50 km/h (31 mph) or more Park/neutral position switch (NSW) is OFF Speed sensor (NC): less than 300 rpm	Open or short in transmission revolution sensor NC (speed sensor NC) circuit Transmission revolution sensor NC (speed sensor NC) ECM

Reference (Using an oscilloscope):

Check the waveform between terminals NC+ and NC- of the ECM connector.
