HI there i will try to help .
first code P0741= transmission torque converter is stuck in the off bastion .
1. Check your transmission fluid level to see if low or might need replacing.
2.You might have a Faulty torque converter clutch solenoid valve.
3.If you can check Torque converter clutch solenoid valve harness or connectors
4.If you can check Torque converter solenoid valve circuit to see it is open or shorted.
But first check your trans fluid '''

2 codeP0455=evaporative emission system leak detected .
1. check your fuel cap and mack shore it is on tight before replacing .

3.Code P1529= check T C M it might be do to code P0741.
1.Fix first code P0741and P0455 and clear codes and see if code P1529
comes back.

good luck ziggyone

Hi,

If you engine is manual transmission, please find it here :


www.autos.yahoo.com/kia/optima/2001/se-v6/specifications.html

Grab the top radiator hose, follow it to the engine, where it meets the engine is where the sensor is.

HI the codes and their respective definitions are below as requested.

P0715 - Input/Turbine Speed Sensor "A" Circuit
P0720 - Output Speed Sensor Circuit
P1529 - Customer Snap Shot Request(Not a essential code or problem)

I posted this solution for this same engine on the 2001 Kia Optima. It is Exactly the same 2.5 V6, and the instructions are exactly the same. I recommend replacing the plug wires. Please see 2001 kia Optima for the rest. Good luck, it's fairly easy.

this means that you have a fault code present in the Transmission control module (TCM), you need to have that module tested, the P1529 is just the engine computer telling you this code is present. here is the book difinition
P1529 TCM Mil On Request Signal

P1529 and P0720 does not seem to be understood.

P0715 means Input/Turbine Speed Sensor Circuit Malfunction.

P0118 means Engine Coolant Temperature Circuit High Input.

When driving the car cold about 10 minutes later the car will kick meduim hard , and the engine light will come on, and then it will be stuck in 3rd gear, but it only does it when the enginge light is on. codes p0720 and p1529 are what I got with the obd2 reader. the P0720 is for the output shaft speed sensor. The sensor was replaced and the computer was reset with the obd2 code reader, but the engine light came back on and I got the same codes,also car kick the same way, What can I do to fix the problem.

Something is wrong with my tps system
