DESCRIPTION
The park/neutral position switch detects the shift lever position and sends signals to the ECM.
| DTC No. | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|
| P0705 | Any 2 or more signals of the following are ON simultaneously (2-trip detection logic)
|
|
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
These DTCs indicate a problem with the park/neutral position switch and the wire harness in the park/neutral position switch circuit.
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 shift lever is in the P or N position.
The park/neutral position switch sends a signal to the ECM according to the shift position (R, 3, 2 or L).
The ECM determines that there is a problem with the switch or related parts if it receives more than 1 position signal simultaneously. The ECM will turn on the MIL and store the DTC.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
DATA LIST
Tech Tips
Using the Intelligent Tester Data List allows switch, sensor, actuator and other item values to be read without removing any parts. Reading the Data List early in troubleshooting is one way to shorten labor time.
Note
In the table below, the values listed under "Normal Condition" are reference values. Do not depend solely on these reference values when deciding whether a part is faulty or not.
Warm up the engine.
Turn the ignition switch off.
Connect the Intelligent Tester to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
Turn on the tester.
Select the item "Enter / Power train / Engine and ECT / Data List".
Follow the instructions on the tester and read the Data List.
| Item | Measurement Item/ Range (display) |
Normal Condition | Diagnostic Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Neutral Position SW Signal | PNP SW Status/ ON or OFF |
Shift lever position is; P and N: ON Except P and N: OFF |
When the shift lever position displayed on the Intelligent tester differs from the actual position, adjustment of the PNP switch or the shift cable may be incorrect. |
| Shift SW Status (L Range) | PNP SW Status/ ON or OFF |
Shift lever position is; L: ON Except L: OFF |
↑ |
| Shift SW Status (2 Range) | PNP SW Status/ ON or OFF |
Shift lever position is; 2: ON Except 2: OFF |
↑ |
| Shift SW Status (3 Range) | PNP SW Status/ ON or OFF |
Shift lever position is; 3: ON Except 3: OFF |
↑ |
| Shift SW Status (R Range) | PNP SW Status/ ON or OFF |
Shift lever position is; R: ON Except R: OFF |
↑ |
PROCEDURE
INSPECT PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH ASSEMBLY
Jack up the vehicle.
Disconnect the park/neutral position switch connector.
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below when the shift lever is moved to each position.
| Resistance | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
| NG |

INSPECT SHIFT LOCK CONTROL UNIT ASSEMBLY
Connect the park/neutral position switch connector.
Disconnect the transmission control switch connector of shift lock control unit assembly.
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below when the shift lever is moved to each position.
| Resistance | |||||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

REPLACE SHIFT LOCK CONTROL UNIT ASSEMBLY |
| OK |
|
CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH - ECM)
Connect the transmission control switch connector of shift lock control unit assembly.
Turn the ignition switch to the ON position, and measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below when the shift lever is moved to each position.
| Voltage | |||||||||

CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH - ECM)
Disconnect the ECM connector.
Turn the ignition switch to the ON position, and measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below when the shift lever is moved to each position.
