2016 Nissan Pathfinder AWD SV with Codes P1217, P0740, P0779, P0963, P0967, and P2815 - Transmission Electrical Issues at 34k Miles

Model: 2016 Nissan Pathfinder AWD SV Fault Code: P0740 Posted: 2020-06-06 12:35

My 2016 Nissan Pathfinder AWD SV (34,000 miles) has been displaying multiple diagnostic trouble codes: P1217, P0740, P0779, P0963, P0967, and P2815. I recently replaced the transmission cable connector due to a broken connection, but the codes persist. Could these be related to electrical wiring issues rather than mechanical failure? Any insights or troubleshooting steps for these specific codes in this model would be greatly appreciated.

All codes except P1217 are associated with transmission circuit faults. Refer to the forum's trouble code guide for detailed explanations and solutions. For accurate wiring diagrams and voltage/resistance specifications, use a reliable service like ALLDAT.com.

Thanks! Is it more likely that these issues stem from electrical problems rather than mechanical transmission failure?

Before proceeding with further repairs, verify the integrity of all wiring connections and harnesses related to the transmission control system.

Have you located the Transmission Control Module (TCM) in your 2016 Nissan Pathfinder? I'm having trouble finding its exact location.

I don't have specific details for Nissan models, but resources like ALLDATA or similar databases should provide accurate TCM location and wiring information.

Hi, did you find a solution for the P0779 code? I recently replaced the valve body, but the code reappeared after the replacement.
