1994 Ford Crown Victoria Transmission slipping	Sign In

I have a 1994 Ford Crown Victoria, Engine 4.6 L, 12000 Miles with Automatic Transmission.
The car runs fine on High way, however notably when the weather is hot , after running couple of miles at speed between 45 -60 the transmission goes momentarily into neutral, the engine revs high and re engages , this is repeated for few miles and then the car runs fine and this can happen again. I hear that other owner of this kind of car have met similar problems with the transmission. the majority recommended the replacement of the TR/MPL sensor. How may I replace this sensor if needed. Also I have check the code and came to MPL sensor above or below operating voltage.
I would appreciate an opinion or help.
Thank you.

You mean 120,000 miles? Not so sure that totally matter @ ~19 years old now. A or B - try diagnosing trans overall at a trans specialty shop. This may have troubles keeping pressure up which actuated most of the wearing components. This slipping in and out of drive can't be good for it no matter what the cause.

Only sensor I found was a pressure control solenoid and that there were possible multiple types of automatics used so can't expound much,

The MLP is located on the drivers side of the transmission. It is bolted behind the shift linkage. There is a couple of marks that need lined up when in neutral. First thing to do is check fluid level and condition. Low fluid could cause that problem. Also a loose transmission filter may cause your concern.

Being way2old is why I need help from younger minds
