P0705

DTC P0705 Transmission Range Sensor Circuit Malfunction (PRNDL Input)

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





MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The DTC indicates a problem with the park/neutral position switch and the wire harness in the park/neutral position switch circuit.
For security, the park/neutral position switch detects the shift lever position so that the engine can be started only when the vehicle is in the 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, D, 3 or 2, the ECM interprets this as a fault in the switch. The ECM will turn on the MIL and store the DTC.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT: According to the DATA LIST displayed on the intelligent tester, you can read the values of components, such as the switches, sensors and actuators, without removing any parts. Reading the DATA LIST as a first step of troubleshooting is one method of shortening labor time.

1. Connect the intelligent tester together with the CAN VIM (controller area network vehicle interface module) to the DLC3.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
3. Push the "ON" button of the tester.
4. Select the items "DIAGNOSIS/ENHANCED OBD II/DATA LIST/A/T".
