P0715: OBD-II code P0715 flags a fault in the input/turbine speed sensor circuit — the TCM can't measure torque converter turbine speed for slip calculation.
HighPowertrainTransmission
Symptoms
- Check engine light is on; the transmission may shift harshly, hold gears too long, or enter limp mode.
- TCC lock-up may be erratic because slip can't be measured accurately without turbine speed data.
- Speedometer may be unaffected but transmission behaviour degrades noticeably.
Common causes
- A failed input speed sensor with intermittent output or drifting signal.
- Damaged wiring or a corroded connector at the sensor on the transmission case.
- Metallic debris on the sensor tip from internal clutch wear inside the transmission.
What to do?
Read live input speed data during a road test. Test the sensor with a scan tool. Replace the sensor if it's faulty. Change the transmission fluid and filter if metallic debris is found on the sensor tip during replacement.
