2003-2008 Honda Pilot P0872 Transmission 3rd and 4th Pressure Switches Replacement 

you have them backwards you put in the right ones but keep calling them the other ones third is under black shroud (the black one) the beige one is above it the 4th! correct?

I went aftermarket as I had this issue twice using OE parts! Trying my luck with aftermarket! Thanks for the video!

Thanks for this video, I used jumping the 4th and 9th on the Obd 2 to read the via via flashing. Came up with #27. Used your link to order both switches, first time an issue! Pilot is 2004 with 202k miles, bought new daily driver

Thank you for this video. I have a 2005 and a 2004 Saturn Vue 3rd gear shift solenoid is out in my 2004 my 2005 has been wrecked so I was thinking of pulling the solenoid out of the 2005 and putting it in the floor this video has helped me figure out where it is and how to do thank you for this video it was very

Thank you! You helped a lot. I just ordered the parts.

So the first sensors you removed are actually the OE Honda colored sensors, they switched the colors to black and beige. I actually installed aftermarket brands with good reviews, I replaced the OE already once so I’m trying the aftermarket brand see what happens! Good video!

It’s salvable no need to change the transmission nor junk the vehicle. I FIX the same issues on my 2004 pilot with 289,000 miles and fix it like new by changing both the two 3rd and 4th pressure switches located under the plastic cover just behind the driver side wheel and also the shift selector near by that was damaged and didn’t show the other gears when shifting gears, it was like the other LED’s disappeared and most time the vehicle was stuck in Parking also had an errático Bucking when first accelerating or shifting from 1-2 gear or 3-4. sometimes the joker will act as if I put it in Neutral after coming to stop lights it was a circus. When working with this pilots you have to start from simplex to complex troubleshooting and try it all. Either-way it will be better than replacing the entire transmission unnecessarily. #1) if it’s a once in a while thing, do the 3 or 4 section transmission flushes using 3 or 4 gallons of highly millage automatic transmission fluid from Walmart ( see other RU-vid videos) aprox 140 this May fix the problem or buy you some time before step #2. #2) do the fluid and changes as mentioned before and change the 3rd and 4th pressure sensors located behind the driver wheel plastic cover( one is brown and the upper is black or vice verse) DO NOT BUY THE CHEAP GENERIC SENSOR from eBay or amazons, IT WONT CLEAR THE FAULT, I WASTED MY MONEY and almost JUNKED my Pilot. I learned this the hard way and almost junk the vehicle, I bunt into a 2003 pilot at the junk yard and removed couple parts including this two sensors finally replacing the cheaply mistake with old OEM parts just for jerk and giggles and it fix the problem, stopped the blinking D. #3) I did all the above and could see where my gears where landing after changing from one another except D and P and a briefly lighting as I moved the stick between them, so Inwent back to the junk yard and pull the transmission Shifter sensor, this was a 250 dollar mouse size part with a harness at authozone that I was able to get at the junk yard for 75 and shannam, boom it worked like new. So don’t just have up on your pilots for this, give it a try.

Very helpful. Thank you!

What can I do… when the truck is on P and shift to D. The truck sounds hard… do you think can I replace ??? Thank you in advance.

You have to drain transmission fluid to replace those sensors?? Or you can change without changing fluid?

Please help I have some issues with my transmisión . Already change some parts . But it doesn’t go up over 40 mph it kicks hard not sure if is this pressure switch but also noticed that when car is on park and try to bring down the handle to D3 position it doesn’t do it it goes straight to 2nd, I believe if don’t fix this first transmission will never go up over 40 mph when I drive on D position . Please need HELP . Thanks

Is the standard transmission have this switch? My friend element is shutting off in 3rd gear. Any help would be great

2008 Honda Pilot EX-L, Honda Genuine ATF (recently drain and filled x 3 times), 233k miles, no codes, no flashing lights, no check engine light. I started experiencing harder shifting. RPM goes up before it switches. I am wondering if it is worth replacing them or is my transmission just worn out?

Thank you

Genuine Honda for less than cost price to a dealer? Those aren't genuine switches but the Amazon seller may have located a OEM manufacture, but likely you bought Rostra switches.

Those "junk" aftermarket sensors are the honda originals, i just pulled out of my 2004 i bought new and the originals look like what you call the aftermarket. There is a beige and says CZ310 on it. Replacement Honda parts different from the originals in at least appearance, I think the black original said BT302 on it

hi i have p0842 honda pilot 2011. is it possible to make a video how to replace AT Fluid pressure switch "A" tia

Do you know where your 2nd gear clutch pressure switch located?

On are 2005 Honda pilot it's goes out of drive into neutral we have to turn off the car and then start it back up then it goes in brive then back to back into neutral but there is no slipping in all the gears just kicks out of drive

I have after market pressure switches in my 08 civic.. going on 3 yrs now $12 ea

Para una acuramdx2008..cual seria la hubicacion ?

is this goes for the FWD 08 EXL VCM ENGINE

Have you ever changed the fluid? Any issues changing it? I changed my fluid and think i may have made a mistake by doing that :/

You got your switch backwards. The black is the 3rd and the beige is the 4th.

i dont have a check engine light but the D is blinking could this be the reason why ?

I think this is my issue

did you replace with new crush washers or re-use?

Hello I’m thinking about buying this car. I looked up the issues, but I’m not quite sure what it could be. Could you possibly help me narrow it down???😅please🙏 ⬇️Seller’s description⬇️ “I have a 2003 Honda pilot for sale. Have had it for a few years. Been one of the best cars I’ve owned. Selling because something happened last time I drove it. It came out of gear and now it won’t go back into gear. I do t have the knowledge to fix it or the money to pay a mechanic. I’m looking to get 700 for it.” It’s a 2003 Honda Pilot · EX Sport Utility 4D w/250,000 miles

Are these in the same position on a 2012 pilot

Now with that much salt under the hood, I will probably junk it.

What you want to do is take your car to the car wash and clean it up first

Yes, because the Honda parts were so good and reliable that you're replacing them maybe Honda parts in the '80s '90s and early 2000s when quality control was actually a thing
