MONITOR DESCRIPTION
This DTC indicates a problem with the park/neutral position switch assembly or the wire harness in the park/neutral position switch assembly circuit.
The park/neutral position switch assembly detects the shift lever position and sends a signal to the TCM.
For safety, the park/neutral position switch assembly detects the shift lever position so that the engine can be started only when the shift lever is in P or N.
The park/neutral position switch assembly sends a signal to the TCM according to the shift lever position (R or D). The TCM determines that there is a problem with the switch or related parts if it receives more than 1 position signal simultaneously. The TCM will then illuminate the MIL and store this DTC.
WIRING DIAGRAM
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Note
Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following procedure.
Perform registration and/or initialization when parts related to the automatic transaxle are replaced.
Tech Tips
Using the GTS to read the Data List allows the values or states of switches, sensors, actuators and other items to be read without removing any parts. This non-intrusive inspection can be very useful because intermittent conditions or signals may be discovered before parts or wiring is disturbed. Reading the Data List information early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time.
After performing repair, clear the DTCs and perform the following procedure to check that DTCs are not output.
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Wait with the shift lever in each position (P, R, N and D) for 60 seconds or more each.
Turn the engine switch off.
Perform steps (a) through (c) again.
Check for DTCs again.
DATA LIST
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 engine switch off.
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / ECT / Data List.
According to the display on the GTS, read the Data List.
| Tester Display | Measurement Item | Range | Normal Condition | Diagnostic Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Neutral Position SW Signal | Park/neutral position switch status | ON or OFF |
|
When the shift lever position displayed on the GTS differs from the actual position, the adjustment of the park/neutral position switch or shift cable may be incorrect. |
| Shift SW Status (P Range) | Park/neutral position switch status | ON or OFF |
|
When the shift lever position displayed on the GTS differs from the actual position, the adjustment of the park/neutral position switch or shift cable may be incorrect. |
| Shift SW Status (D Range) | Park/neutral position switch status | ON or OFF |
|
When the shift lever position displayed on the GTS differs from the actual position, the adjustment of the park/neutral position switch or shift cable may be incorrect. |
