They are inside the trans, on the passenger side of the valve body.
A Governor Pressure Solenoid Transducer, or Governor Pressure Sensor, is a component in an automatic transmission system that monitors and regulates the hydraulic pressure within the transmission. It sends real-time pressure data to the transmission control module (TCM), allowing for optimal shifting and performance by adjusting the pressure based on driving conditions. This ensures smooth gear changes and enhances overall transmission efficiency. If the sensor fails, it can lead to erratic shifting or transmission performance issues.
This transmission uses an electronic governor. The pcm is the control. There is a solenoid and a pressure sensor on the valve body inside the pan.
Roughly $350 in parts and $150 for labor.
I am going to give you the information for a 4.0L, if you have the 4.7L V8 let me know and I will send that informationThis is a fairly easy repair, when I do this I replace the governor pressure sensor and the transducer, that way you wont have to go back in if the other fails, you should also replace the filter while the pan is offHoist and support vehicle on safety stands.Place a large diameter shallow drain pan beneath the transmission pan.Remove bolts holding front and sides of pan to transmissionLoosen bolts holding rear of pan to transmission.Slowly separate front of pan and gasket away from transmission allowing the fluid to drain into drain pan.Hold up pan and remove remaining bolt holding pan to transmission.While holding pan level, lower pan and gasket away from transmission.Pour remaining fluid in pan into drain pan.Remove screws holding filter to valve bodySeparate filter from valve body and pour fluid in filter into drain pan.Dispose of used trans fluid and filter properly.Disengage wire connectors from pressure sensor and solenoidRemove screws holding pressure solenoid retainer to governor body.Separate solenoid retainer from governorPull solenoid from governor bodyPull pressure sensor from governor body.Remove bolts holding governor body to valve body.Separate governor body from valve bodyRemove governor body gasket.Before installing the pressure sensor and solenoid in the governor body, replace o-ring seals, clean the gasket surfaces and replace gasket.Place gasket in position on back of governor bodyPlace governor body in position on valve body.Install bolts to hold governor body to valve body.Lubricate o-ring on pressure sensor with transmission fluid.Align pressure sensor to bore in governor body.Push pressure sensor into governor body.Lubricate o-ring, on pressure solenoid, with transmission fluid.Align pressure solenoid to bore in governor bodyPush solenoid into governor body.Place solenoid retainer in position on governorInstall screws to hold pressure solenoid retainer to governor body.Engage wire connectors into pressure sensor and solenoidInstall transmission fluid pan and (new) filter.Lower vehicle and road test to verify repair.Parts should run right around $260.00 plus 2.0 hours labor
The governor pressure sensor is on the passenger side of the valve body inside the transmission.
On a Dodge/Jeep it is inside the transmission on the valve body.
this happens to all dodges trucks and cars thar are automatics ok thiis is caused by your sensor in your transmission. go to tranmission shop and get them to fix it TRUST ME It sounds to me as if you need to replace the governor pressure sensor and the governor pressure solenoid. I had the same problem and it fixed it. this is a very common problem. Any dodge dealership will have the parts in stock.
If you are asking about the code "governor pressure offset voltage" the governor pressure transducer is located on the valve body inside the transmission pan.
A pressure control solenoid sensor is an electromechanical device used in automotive systems, particularly in automatic transmissions, to regulate fluid pressure. It receives signals from the vehicle's control module and adjusts the pressure of transmission fluid to optimize shifting performance and enhance fuel efficiency. By ensuring proper pressure levels, it helps prevent issues like slipping or overheating in the transmission. Overall, it plays a crucial role in maintaining the smooth operation of a vehicle's transmission system.
its not really called a vtec sensor. its a Vtec Solenoid, the solenoid has an oil pressure switch mounted on the solenoid. When the head reaches a certain pressure the oil pressure switch sends a signal to the ecu and the ecu sends a signal to the solenoid to open the extra valves
A 1997 Chrysler Town and Country does not have a governor pressure sensor.
