DTC P2160: Problem in CVT Speed Sensor Circuit (No Signal Input): General Description
The CVT speed sensor detects the number of revolutions of the secondary drive gear and sends a pulsing signal to the transmission control module (TCM). The TCM converts the pulsing signal into a vehicle speed.
If there is no input signal from the CVT speed sensor when the vehicle speed detected by the vehicle speed sensor (VSS) is a specified value or more, a malfunction is detected and a DTC is stored.
