fiDefective speed sensors in the Mercedes 722.8 Autotronic TCM
Which error codes are involved?
There are several error codes that can point in the direction of a faulty speed sensor in the Mercedes-Benz 722.8 Autotronic. The most well-known examples are the following error codes:
- P0720 - Speed Gradient nPrimGrd > nPrimGrdMax
- P0722 - The RPM signal from component Y3/9b5 (CVT output rpm sensor) is not available
- P0793 - Intermediate Shaft Speed Sensor Circuit No Signal
- P0794 - Intermediate Input Shaft Speed Sensor Signal
In which cars do these error codes occur:
Mercedes-Benz A-Class W169 (2004-2012)
Mercedes-Benz B-Class W245 (2005-2011)
Cause of these error codes
The cause of these malfunctions can be found in the TCU/TCM of the 722.8 transmission. The speed sensors Y3/9B4 and Y3/9B5 (as shown in the image) are controlled by the main circuit board. This means that there is a malfunction in this circuit board, so replacing these sensors does not solve the problem.
