AFTER INSTALLING TRANSMISSION ,FOUND CODES P0705 AND P0741 . FOUND RANGE SENSOR AND JUMPER HARNESS TO RANGE SENSOR NOT INTERCHANGEABLE. REPLACED WITH OLD ONE FROM REMOVED TRANS THIS FIXED P0705 CODE BUT STILL HAVE P0741 CODE.
That will not work u need MBXA no sensors will work or the
trans will not shift
SOURCE: P0705
sounds like the trans range sensor or it could be internal trans problem. is the trans shifting ok? if not, it might need an overhaul. the sensor might be something you can tackle but it's on top of the trans right below the air filter housing. it the sensor that the shifter cable is connected to. you'll have to have it in neutral to install it as the sensor has line up marks on it.

The sensor should be located where the shifter cable is attached to the trans. It will have a plug with several wires. Usually there will be a way to align it, like a hole with a pin when it should be in neutral.

VW Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) and data can be retrieved with VW/Audi Factory Scan Tools such as the VAG 1551, VAG 1552, or the new diagnostic computer VAS 5051 through a Data Link Connector (DLC). Several aftermarket scan tools and computer programs are also capable of retrieving this information in this factory mode. The factory mode also allows the scan tool to be used for other system diagnostic functions and information retrieval. Some DTC information can also be retrieved in a generic mode. The generic mode is not as complete as the factory mode, but allows commercially available scan tools to be used simply to read DTCs. Generic scan tool mode does not have the capability to retrieve the detailed information of a manufacturer-specific scan tool.
VW DTC 17089 = EOBD P-Code P0705 = Transmission Range Sensor Circuit (PRNDL Input) Malfunction.
Possible causes:
- Open or short park/neutral position switch circuit.
- Poor park/neutral position switch circuit connection.
- Misadjusted park/neutral position switch.
- Park/neutral position switch may be faulty.
The park/neutral position (PNP) switch includes a transmission range switch. The transmission range switch detects the selector lever position when the shift lever is in the N or P shift position and sends a signal to the Transmission Control Module (TCM).
When is the code detected?
The transmission range switch detects the selector lever position and sends a signal to the TCM.
If you have replaced the transmission range sensor, it could be misadjusted, poor connections, and open or short switch circuit. Check all of these possibilities & repair & adjust the sensor. After that erase P0705 code from TCM memory and test the car.
If speed/odometer and tachometer have also stopped working, I guess there is an Instrument Cluster issue.

A mechanic would monitor the output of the selector switch with a scanner to see if it is reading the correct shifter position. Could be a wiring harness problem too.
