Transmission fluid pressure sensor
Have anyone had an issue with the transmission fluid pressure sensor on their
2007 Corvette. P0872 |
Read up on this TSB. Some intermittent sticking can throw the code but not necessarily a problem. Clear the code and see if it stays gone.

During normal use, the TFP switches may stick from time to time causing a code to set. This is to be considered normal as switch outputs are only used for shift adaptives and do not cause transmission symptoms unless the switch is failed for a long period of time. To determine if the TFP switch is functioning correctly, clear the code and perform the following check. Important: The Tech 2® must contain version 27.007 or later. Turn the key to the "ON" position (do not start), apply parking brake and put vehicle in neutral. Plug the Tech 2® into the ALDL and turn power on. Press "enter" on the Tech 2® to get to the first menu. Select "Diagnostics" from the first menu. From the following screens, build the vehicle. Select "Powertrain." Select the correct engine. Select "Transmission Control Module." Select "Special Functions." Select "Shift Transmission." Important: Make sure to wait for at least 5 seconds in each gear state for the TFPs to stabilize. Scroll down until you can see all pressure switch state variables (TFP 1, 3, 4 and 5). All switches should read "LOW" at key on (in neutral). Refer to the table below. Apply the foot brake, start the vehicle leaving it in neutral and compare the switch states to row 2 of the table. Make sure to allow enough time for the switches to stabilize. With the brakes applied, place the shifter in drive (D) (IMS Drive 6) and shift the transmission into 2nd gear using the Tech 2® soft key (upshift or downshift). The commanded gear is displayed at the top of the screen. Compare with variables in the table. Keep the vehicle in drive (D) (IMS Drive 6) and shift to 5th gear using the Tech 2® soft key (upshift or downshift). Compare with variables in the table. If the TFP switch states match the values in the table for all listed gear states, the switches are functioning correctly. Any switch codes that set were caused by an intermittent condition that will not cause transmission related driveability concerns.
