B0005



DTC B0005

Circuit Description

The steering column lock control module (SCLCM) receives a discrete input from the automatic transmission shift lever and a serial data input from the instrument panel module (IPM). When the shift lever is in the park position, the switch internal to the automatic transmission shift lever closes sending a high input to the SCLCM. The SCLCM compares the serial data input to the discrete input. If the SCLCM receives a column lock enable command from the IPM and the transmission shift select switch park signal circuit is low, DTC B0005 will set.
