DTC P0792: Intermediate Shaft Speed Sensor "A" Circuit Range/Performance
NOTE:
- Before you troubleshoot, review the General Troubleshooting Information - Refer to: How to Troubleshoot the Fuel and Emissions SystemsHow to Troubleshoot the CVT System(CVT System) .
- This code is caused by an electrical circuit problem and cannot be caused by a mechanical problem in the transmission.

| P0792 Intermediate Shaft Speed Sensor "A" Circuit Range/Performance |
- 1. Problem verification:
1. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.
2. Clear the DTC with the HDS.
3. Raise the vehicle on a lift. Make sure it is securely supported, and allow the front wheels to rotate freely.
4. Start the engine.
5. Disable the VSA by pressing the VSA OFF button.
6. Test-drive the vehicle with the shift lever in D position/mode, and keep the vehicle at speeds over 19 mph (30 km/h) for at least 30 seconds. Slow down and stop the wheels.
7. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.
DTC Description Confirmed DTC Pending DTC Freeze Frame P0792 Intermediate Shaft Speed Sensor "A" Circuit Range/Performance Is DTC P0792 indicated?
YES
The failure is duplicated. Go to step 2.
NO
Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals between the PCM and the CVT drive pulley speed sensor. If the freeze data/on-board snapshot of this DTC is recorded, try to reproduce the failure under the same conditions with the freeze data/on-board snapshot.
- 2. CVT drive pulley speed sensor check:
1. Rotate the front wheels with the shift lever in D position/mode, while monitoring the Input Shaft (Drive Pulley) Speed rpm and the Torque Converter Turbine Speed rpm in the Data List with the HDS.
2. Compare the parameters below with the HDS.
Signal Current conditions Values Unit Input Shaft(Drive Pulley) Speed rpm Torque Converter Turbine Speed Are the speeds about the same?
YES
The CVT drive pulley speed sensor is OK. Update the PCM if it does not have the latest software , or substitute a known-good PCM , then recheck. If DTC P0792 goes away and the PCM was updated, troubleshooting is complete. If DTC P0792 goes away and the PCM was substituted, replace the original PCM .
NO
