Question type: Maintenance & Repair

P0733,p0734,p0736 codes speed sensor didn't fix it

23 Answers

http://engine-codes.com/p0736.html I can't paste it it's copyrighted but have a look ...shift solenoid or low or contaminated fluid ...all those codes are different gears, the speed sensor is working fine but does not agree on the rpm of engine from ECU and what output rpm should be in that gear. An indication of slipping

Don't waste your time with solenoids or fluid changes or flushes. If the only thing not working is reverse, it will need a transmission. I'm a Hyundai tech and have seen this many times. If you're the original owner the warranty is 10 years 100,000 miles. Good luck

Well it's just not reverse , it won't go into 3rd or 4th gear either?! Still a shoot tranny you think? It's my sister-in -laws car.. She didn't do too much maintenance on it.. When I check the tranny fluid there was none in it and the lil bit that was in there was burnt.. And you can tell it's leaking from some where most likely the seals .. Anyway , if your still think burnt out tranny I'll just have her bring it to the dealership

Yes. It's too bad. Once the fluid is that dark and burnt smelling means the clutches in the transmission are burnt up. Possible all due to lack of maintenance. If the rest of the car is good why not replace the transmission. Hyundai offers a remanufactured transmission that is very good. Other than that a used one, but you should want to know how many miles are on that transmission. Good luck. Sorry for the bar news. Second though is if she's the original owner and the car has less than 100,000 miles on it and owned it less than 10 years it should be under warranty. Let me know how you make out

It's call Drum-Kick Down Brake and Bearing End Clutch. First Drum goes bad then Bearing. These parts are inside the transmission. I have repair 3 transmission in last 2 yrs. .

I had this same problem and got it fixed first off don't drive it secondly if the fluid is black you will probably need to buy a junk yard transmission. Take the pan off check for needle bearing pieces if there is you should take the cover off the overdrive and replace the bearing there I would also replace the pump torque converter and transmission filter this fixed my no reverse and hard shifting problem

Hi everyone! I have a 04 Accent and it won't go to reverse. Just 1st gear and 3th, I checked and found P0733 code. Do you guys think if I change the solenoids it will work? TY

Look at my answer # 50 from top. It's call Drum-Kick Down Brake. Reverse problem is in side the trany.

@Lala, I have a 04 Elantra hatchback manual. Even I put the car in reverse gear, it would not go backward. I have to try several attempts to get it going. Sometimes If I put it into 3rd gear first and then right into reverse, the car would engage and get going backward. Is this the problem in tranny as well? Thanks

Not an answer but username Lala I need to ask you a question. I found them pin bearings in my pan. The car goes in reverse and drives just doesn’t go into 3, 4, or OD. Is that what I have to replace the drum-kick down and bearing?
