P215B OBD-II: Vehicle Speed - Output Shaft Speed Correlation

OBD II Fault Code

• OBD II P215B

OBD-II Code Transmission may not shift properly is defined as a Vehicle Speed - Output Shaft Speed Correlation

The Wheel Speed Sensors tell the Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) Module how fast the vehicle is moving. The Output Shaft Speed Sensor tells the Hybrid Powertrain Control Module how fast output shaft of the transmission is actually spinning. This information is compared between the ABS and Hybrid Powertrain Control Modules. If the Output Shaft Speed sensor does not match the vehicle speed sensor information, code P215B will set.
