Default P1762&1763

About 1000 miles ago I replaced the governor sensor and the solenoid after a P1756 code. Ran fine for those thousand miles then I just got back from a 400 mile trip and about 3 miles from home my CEL comes on. I stop at home and get a P1763 code and a P1762.

1762 The Governor Pressure Sensor input was too high or too low for 3 consecutive park/neutral calibrations.
1763 The Governor Pressure Sensor input is too high

What would have caused this and how can I fix it?

Pressure sensor and solenoids are know trouble makers in these transmissions. Replace 'em both. Just get a filter kit for your trans, (46RE), six or so quarts of ATF +4, and the solenoid and sensor. You can grab the 01 service manual from the FAQ section here, and it will show you where they are, and how to replace them.

Did you change your filter too? Did you refill with AT+4? Both are important. Your filter may be clogged up or there may be debris in your pan creating pressure issues. Are the parts you got Mopar or aftermarket? I've heard of 'rebuilt' solenoids causing issues too- a lot of aftermarket items like these are rebuilt, or rejected Mopar parts.

I recall you having this issue about two months ago. Sucks that its back huh? Good luck dude.

I don't know dude. Other than these butt **** simple things I'm lost when it comes to trannies. Maybe somebody else will contribute with something that can help us both out. You could also skim through Monte's tranny thread for info as well.

Wish I could help ya more but it sounds like its over my head at this point.

Drop the pan, pull the parts, see what they look like. Are they clogged with sludge? Clean 'em out, and you will be good to go.

CAREFULLY look over the wiring harness in there, any rubbed thru wires? Broken? might check continuity of the circuits while you have the pan off.

Check the external connectors as well. Are they still reasonably well sealed? Contacts clean? Not all corroded?

Check the pins at the PCM as well. There is a factory service manual available for download in the FAQ section here. Grab it, from there, you can see which connector/pins you are concerned with.
