Hi 
I take it that this is a DPF equipped engine?
Are you familiar with removing the airbox/engine cover?
Look at post 18 on here for a helpful video (old.. But possibly unchanged in principle)

tps? | FIAT Punto (Mk2/2b)
will a tps sensor problem cause an erratic idle and occasional moment of misfiring? If not what can???? sparks changed ht leads changed Coil packs Changed ECU changed.

So we have a dualogic gearbox that's broken down and it's a 1.3D
With according to the AA an engine sensor
And the dash saying its a gearbox error
First step would be to read the actual code
It's likely to be one of the sensors on the gearbox, there's a couple
I doubt the throttle position sensor would give a check transition error
Does it drive at all?
Does powering it down by disconnecting the battery negative connection let things reset..
Clearing the error

No He tried that exactly the same...
I took battery off and coolant tank it is easy to get too plug is a bit hard to get off thoughThanks M8...

That's the Gear Engagement Sensor
Not the same as the title or the first photo
But quite likely to give the dash error for gearbox
Scanner probable give a P0914? error
The electric connector has a latch, you have to push it down before pulling part

OK thanks very much bit confused with the proper name for it...
Most of these type of sensor plugs have a toggle / latch
You have to free that latch then try a wriggle...
See if it will go slacker..
Then gently pull
If it was me.. I would wriggle the connector a little..
The reconnect the battery
Turn on ignition.. See if the error has gone
As I said, sensors are pretty tough.. It's as likely to be a poor connection
Hope so Thanks M8..il let you knowMost of these type of sensor plugs have a toggle / latch
