P2765: Input/Turbine Speed Sensor B Circuit OBD-II Trouble Code

An input/turbine speed sensor / turbine speed sensor / TSS is used to read the rotational speed of the input shaft inside the transmission, which helps the ECU to determine when to execute a shift. A P2765 DTC indicates a problem with this sensor.

How Serious is the Code?

There are a number of transmission problems associated with a P2765 diagnostic trouble code, including erratic shifts, failed shifts and engine stalling.

Symptoms

Symptoms of a P2765 include:

  • Erratic or hard shifts
  • Failure to shift
  • Decreased fuel economy
  • Speedometer/odometer failure or fluctuation
  • Engine stalling
  • Limp Mode

Causes

  • Failed TSS sensor
  • Damaged turbine speed sensor wiring
  • Faulty connectors
  • Failed solenoid
  • Valve body issues
  • Dirty transmission fluid

How to Diagnose the Code?

When trying to diagnose a P2765 OBDII trouble code, one of the first things that should be done is to check the condition of the transmission fluid. The wiring and connectors will also need to be checked, along with the manufacturer’s TSB database. If everything looks good and there’s no metal fragments on the input speed sensor head, the sensor itself will have to be tested, along with possibly the output speed sensor and intermediate shaft speed sensor.
