DTC P0705 TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR CIRCUIT MALFUNCTION (PRNDL INPUT)

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION

DTC Detection Condition:




The park/neutral position switch detects the shift lever position and sends signals to the ECM.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

Monitor Strategy:




Typical Enabling Conditions:




Typical Malfunction Thresholds:




Component Operating Range:




The park/neutral position switch detects the shift lever position and sends a signal to the ECM.
For security, the park/neutral position switch detects the shift lever position so that engine can be started only when the vehicle is in P or N shift position.
When the park/neutral position switch sends more than one signal at a time from switch positions P, R, N or D, the ECM interprets this as a fault in the switch. The ECM will turn on the MIL and store the DTC.
