1996 Maxima A/T Slip DTC

I have a 1996 Nissan Maxima with an automatic transmission and I got a check engine light. I checked for trouble codes, and I got one that said "Gear 1 ratio incorrect", which I later found out can indicate your transmission is slipping if it is an automatic. I cleared the code, and it keeps comming back. The transmission does not seem to be slipping, but I am still worried. I found out there is a test called a stall test that can be performed by holding the brakes and reving the engine with it in gear, and I fully understand how this works because I study hydroelectric dams and have researched francis turbines. The problem is I don't know the correct stall speed for my torque converter, so if anybody knows the correct stall speed for the torque converter on this car, please tell me.

Thanks, T. Guy

What's the code?

It probably has a failing TPS (Throttle Position Sensor).

The code is probably something in the 700's
