A trouble code just tells you that a sensor is reporting a reading that is out of range. it can be the sensor, a wiring connection, the computer or there can be something causing the fluid pressure inside your transmission to be too high or low. A Nissan Micra is not sold in the US as far as I know. How many miles on it, does it have a transmission dipstick. Is the fluid low? Has the fluid ever been changed and are you sure the right fluid has been used?
