I have an 03 Pontiac Sunfire. While on vacation my
check engine light came on & before heading home, I got a mechanic to check it out. He said it
was a bad sensor - the one that tells the car what gear it's in. He said it would not strand me nor would I probably notice the car running any differently. Dumb question here - if put the car in
R I go backwards, if in D I go forward plus the car does change gears correctly. Why would the car need to "know what gear I am in". What type of sensor tells this?
THANKS!!!!
