Hi,
I had my transmission rebuilt and when it was finished it chewed up the main-shaft sensor. The mechanic switched the main shaft sensor with the counter shaft sensor and it still chewed it up. He then added a washer to the new main shaft sensor the heighten it and it worked but the van idles too high and the scanner read that the TPS is malfunctioning. What could have caused this?
Thank you.
One of two things....He screwed up when replaceing the transmission and damaged the TPS sensor.... or the common problem is the TPS sensor got messed up when the rat ate the insulation off of the sensor and chewed through the wires.
Check with your local dealer about a warranty/recall on the TPS sensor.

Now i dont know a lot about automatics especially modern ones with all this fancy electronics thats used nowdays but i think its a fault with the temperature sensor for the gearbox.But where its located and what it looks like i have no idea it could even be mounted inside the gearbox .Sorry not a very good answer from a mechanic but?? very few of our europeon cars come with auto transmission .Evan when i do know whats wrong i cannot buy the parts for the gearbox as only re-con boxes supplied by the dealer so best advice is to try a specialist in auto box repairs only .PS some of my best students when i used to teach mechanics many moons ago were the girls so no excuses like iam only a girl please
