P083ETransmission Fluid Pressure Sensor/Switch G Circuit Intermittent

P083E indicates that the transmission control module (TCM) has detected an intermittent fault in the electrical circuit for Transmission Fluid Pressure Sensor/Switch G, which is used to monitor hydraulic pressure inside the transmission. The TCM sees the sensor signal drop out or become erratic for brief periods, rather than failing completely, which is why the code is stored as intermittent.
