If the vehicle goes forwards and backwards, that is good thing. Most cars aren't designed to go up and down.

Re: Nissan 2002 transmission only goes forward and backwards Sign In

In layman's term:


The computer is watching the vehicle speed from two different sensors. One is in the transmission and the other is in the instrument cluster. Both them sensors should be reading the same speed, so the PCM can operate the cruise control. If their speeds are different, that code appears.

You probably have a compatibility issue or the TCM (transmission control module) isn't seeing vehicle speed from the sensor in the transmission. Did that transmission come out of the same year, make, model, and engine size vehicle as the one you have?

You'll need to get it to a shop and have them put a scanner on it to look at TCM data stream information to see if the TCM is getting vehicle speed signal.
