Got diagnostic code P083B - Transmission Fluid Pressure Sensor Switch G Circuit Range Performance. There doesn't appear to be a repair manual for a 2015 Chrysler Town and Country with the 62TE transmission, and I can't find whether this sensor is located inside the transmission or HOPEFULLY outside and where! Any help greatly appreciated!
The pressure switch is located on the valve body inside the transmission
Testimonial: "Thank you for your fast answer. I hoped that wasn't the case, but at least now I know! Your help is much appreciated."
How can you add transmission fluid to a 205 chrysler 200 yourself

Hi there the speed sensor is located at the fron of the transmission between the two transmission cooler lines. Hope this helps you out

P0700 sets in the engine controller when there is a code stored in the trans controller. That code applies to the transmission control system, but additionally, there are definitely more codes stored in the Trans Controller. The first thing we need to do is get these codes, I'm supposed that is the P0841 ( ). To confirm, they will have to be read with a code reader or scan tool. Almost all parts stores will read codes for free.
If this is right and your other code is the P0841 is for the Low/Reverse Pessure Switch in the solenoid pack mounted on the front of the transmission. This code can be caused by a few things.
First make sure the fluid is full. If the fluid is low and you are having delayed engagement problems when the car is first started it can set this code. If the fluid is low top it off with ATF+4, clear the codes, check for leaks, and see if the code returns. If it does return or if the fluid is full then the problem is probably electrical.
Also, it could be the pressure switch itself, the wiring between the Trans and the Engine/Trans Controller (PCM or Powertrain Control Module), or the PCM itself. If the fluid level is ok and you aren't having any engagement problems then the pressure switch is probably bad, and it would require solenoid pack replacement. The solenoid pack is mounted on the front of the trans with the bolt-on 8 way connector.
Here some tips diagnostic procedure (clikc over each image for zoom)...
This DTC will set if the TCM senses the L/R Pressure Switch closing while performing PEMCC or FEMCC or after two unsuccessful attempts to perform PEMCC or FEMCC.
POSSIBLE CAUSES:
RELATED DTC P0841 PRESENT
L/R PRESSURE SWITCH INOPERATIVE
INTERMITTENT OPERATION
TRANSMISSION RELAY OUTPUT CIRCUIT OPEN
L/R PRESSURE SWITCH SENSE CIRCUIT OPEN
L/R PRESSURE SWITCH SENSE CIRCUIT SHORT TO GROUND
L/R PRESSURE SWITCH SENSE CIRCUIT SHORT TO VOLTAGE
TCM - SOLENOID SWITCH VALVE
Finally I would trying re-programming it first and if that dont fixed your going to need to replace your Trans Control Module.
Hope this helps.

First off do not listen to Autozone, they are very quick to spend your money, they are screen readers not trained automotive technicians. No fault code with few exceptions tells you exactly what is wrong, it can be the sensor, the wiring to it or the control module (computer) that has the problem. The pressure sensor is inside the transmission a really dirty big job to access, so have a TRAINED technician look into this before any parts are replaced.

I had a similar problem in my Mazda truck before. There is a pressure switch on the side of my truck's automatic gear box. The switch is connected to the engine vacuum system. When the switch leaks, the vacuum sucked the transmission oil through the vacuum line to the engine over time. Have you checked your transmission oil level? If the oil level is low, that's probably the reason. I was still able to drive back home by adding sufficient amount of transmission oil.
Good luck.
