An engine error when the automatic transmission is on may indicate one of the following problems:
Transmission problems:
* Malfunctioning torque converter: It may not transmit enough pressure or may slip, causing torque transmission problems and engine error.
* Solenoid Problem: Damaged or faulty solenoids can affect gear shifting and cause engine error.
*Low transmission fluid: Insufficient transmission fluid can cause overheating and engine errors.
* Wear on internal transmission components: Worn gears, bearings or other components can cause engine errors and transmission problems.
Engine problems:
* Misfire: Incomplete combustion of fuel in one or more cylinders can lead to engine errors and performance problems.
* Sensor Problems: Faulty sensors such as the oxygen sensor, MAF sensor, or engine temperature sensor can transmit incorrect data, leading to engine errors and performance problems.
* Exhaust system problems: A clogged or damaged catalytic converter or muffler can cause engine errors and affect performance.
Other problems:
*Electronic faults: Problems with wiring, electronic modules or software can cause engine errors and performance problems.
* Dirty fuel or air filter: Dirty air or fuel can prevent the engine from operating efficiently and lead to engine errors.
How to fix it:
Diagnosis by a specialist is required to determine the exact cause and repair of the engine error. Schedule a diagnosis with a qualified mechanic who specializes in transmission or engine repair, depending on the suspected problem.
