SOURCE: 2000 sonata check engine lite came on,

The output speed sensor is located on top of the transmission output shaft, this will send speed value to the transmission control module (TCM).
The vehicle speed sensor is installed on the differential of the transmission, and sends speed value to speed gauge on instrument cluster.

Check also IAC valve and look for vacuum leaks using an hand tool gauge(Vacuum Gauge and Fuel Pump Pressure).

The problem is AutoZone. Stay away from that place. I once worked there and was amazed by the number of returns. They sell low quality parts, most of them rebuilt and listed as new.

The best of the low end parts dealers would be KOI, NAPA, and Carquest. All others blow chunks. Else, just go to the dealer.

Replace the transaxle or see if it can be rebuilt. Those transaxles have incorporated electronic solenoids that can fail causing the codes to appear as you described. One thing you might check prior to getting it rebuilt or replaced is have the computer checked and check all of your wiring connections. Anytime you have a wiring connector on the exterior of the vehicle you can get corrosion issues it may be simply cleaning the connectors, placing dielectric grease on them and reattaching. Before cleaning any connectors always disconnect the negative battery terminal.

I have a Suzuki Jimny automatic 2007. It has 3 buttons to select gear type. None of these are now working.

Start by looking at the fuse box... check all the fuses. Next possibility is a relay.

The Suzuki Jimny Transmission Control Module (TCM) is an electronic circuit component that controls gear shift, TCC lock-up and idle-up according to the signal from each sensor. It is a microcomputer consisting of an IC, transistor, diode, etc. It is installed behind glove box.

1. Ignition switch
2. Transmission range sensor
3. Input shaft speed sensor
4. Output shaft speed sensor (A/T VSS)
5. Shield wire
6. Vehicle speed sensor (VSS)
7. Transmission fluid temperature sensor
8. Shift solenoid-A (Shift solenoid No.1)
9. Shift solenoid-B (Shift solenoid No.2)
10. Shift solenoid-C (Shift solenoid No.3)
11. Shift solenoid-D (Shift solenoid No.4) 12. TCC solenoid (Lock-up solenoid)
13. "O/D" cut switch
14. "O/D OFF" lamp
15. Monitor connector No.2
16. DLC
17. To ECM
18. To A/C
19. To brake lamp switch
20. To main relay
21. Terminal arrangement of TCM coupler

Why doesn't it shift to 3rd gear?

Sounds like a speed sensor has failed. Could also be that the transmission fuse has blown. Check fuses and get codes cleared. Other things, that will affect the transmission shift points, would be the manifold absolute pressure MAP sensor, throttle position sensor, PRNDL switch (shifter location switch). Probably just a power issue.

Where is the transmission speed sensor located on a 2007 4x4 trailblazer, will it cause the transmission not to shift into 3rd gear?

No it would not ! you probably have a 2-3 Shift Solenoid (SS) problem !
You trailblazer has Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) located on the tail shaft of the trans . this sensor supply's info to the PCM for vehicle speed . Your trailblazer also has a Input Speed Sensor (ISS) if this were bad it would cause erratic shifts all gears ! Does your vehicle have a check engine light lit or any other type light like a yellow wrench or service vehicle soon ? Your best bet is to take it to AAMCO or some other ASE certified repair facility !

My 2005 Cadillac Deville speedometer goes to zero and transmission seems get stuck and car will not go over 15-20 mph with high engine rpms. Unless I mash on the petal to make it skip gears. #help

problems with speed sensor for transmission. Computer uses a speed signal to shift transmission through the gears. Without speed input, the computer doesn't know when to shift the transmission. Either the speed sensor is bad or wiring from the ECM to the speed sensor is bad. Usually 2 wires lead to the sensor. The sensor generates a AC voltage signal with higher speeds generating more voltage and frequency. The ECM (computer), looks at the signal to see how fast the vehicle is traveling.

2007 chevy colorada code p0700 and p0717

input speed sensor for transmission is faulty which will throw the 717 code and when it does it will also tell "root" TCM (transaxle control module) to include the 700 code.
700 happens when it detects an issue with the TCM.
717 happens when the sensor is bad.
- Faulty Transmission Speed Sensor
- Transmission Speed Sensor harness is open or shorted
- Transmission Speed Sensor circuit poor electrical connection

My 91 dodge stealth is in limp mode how do i fix this transmission problem

Your car is in "limp"mode because the computer doesn't know what speed your doing,So it doesn't shift,
There are three possible reasons for this,
#1= input sensor faulty on transmission,
#2=output sensor faulty on transmission,
#3=speed sensor faulty on transmission,
you need to have the transmission codes read to know which one,Autozone checks codes for free.
