It's a diy fix if it's confirmed to be the fault by other members. Have you cleaned the maf lately? Does cause gearbox change problems and o/d to come on.

They usually need changing out as the cog has slightly stripped. Hope this can be confirmed by other members

Definitely, they go wrong electrically inside, so you can't see what's wrong.

Will, You will need to replace it with one from another 24V. They are different for every gearbox
