P0715 Turbine speed sensor circuit A. Sets after clearing, data shows no glitches in signal and reads steady rpm value at idle and when off idle. No other codes. Circuit test seems waste of time seeing that data is correct. One thing I did notice was that engine rpm value is about 200 rpm lower than the turbine rpm value, idle reads about 750 on dash, turbine value reads same, engine rpm reads about 550. Not picking up any glitches while graphing the signal. When code sets shift hard into reverse and into drive.

    codes sets at idle, not moving....and if this matters at all engine rpm is lower than turbine shaft measured rpm....I would think that if its slipping it would be the opposite.

You may have a slipping torque converter clutch or worn bands. Contact a local transmission repair shop for further diagnoisis. The turbine speed sensors measure in and out speed of the main shaft, if a excess differance is seen then it will turn on the light and set the appropriate fault codes.

SOURCE: Service engine light

Your not going to here any knock from the engine the knock sensor detects detonation which is not detectable with the human ear. if you want to test the knock sensor you can tap the side of the block the engine should stumble for a couple of seconds if it does not change then the way the engine runs then the knock sensor is defective or hase buildup iside the engine and you will need to do a top engine clean. if you want instructions on how to do this just post another post to this reply This happens on engines that ave high mileage or acar that runs low grade like regular.

Pcm shows a turbine speed sensor error code, any reason the valve body separator plate needs to be replaced?

Error Code P0715 is defined as Input/Turbine Speed Sensor Circuit Malfunction. This means the transmission is unable to read the RPM of the engine, keeping it from shifting properly and causing erratic and hard transmission.
