NOTE: Code P0715115) on the PCMdoesn't always mean there's an electricalproblem in the mainshaft or counlersharlspeed sensor circuit; code P0715(15) mayalso indicate a mechanical problem in thetransmission. Check the freeze data witha Honda PGM Tester. lf the mainshaftspeed sensor rpm was 0, proceed withthis troubleshooting. lf not, the probablecause is a mechanical problom within thetransmission,
