DTC P0733: A/T 3RD Gear Function: Description

• This malfunction will not be detected while the O/D OFF indicator lamp is indicating another self-diagnosis malfunction.
• This malfunction is detected when the A/T does not shift into third gear position as instructed by the TCM. This is not caused by electrical malfunction (circuits open or shorted) but by mechanical malfunction such as control valve sticking, improper solenoid valve operation, malfunctioning servo piston or brake band, etc.
