| DTC Code | DTC Name |
|---|---|
| P0705 | Transmission Range Sensor Circuit Malfunction (PRNDL Input) |
DESCRIPTION
The park/neutral position switch detects the shift lever position and sends signals to the TCM.
| DTC Code | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|
| P0705 | Either condition is met: (A) Any 2 or more of the following signals are ON simultaneously (2-trip detection logic):
(B) NSW, R and D switches are all off simultaneously. |
|
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
This DTC indicates a problem with the park/neutral position switch and/or the wire harness in the park/neutral position switch circuit.
The park/neutral position switch detects the shift lever position (P, R or D) and sends a signal to the TCM.
For safety, the park/neutral position switch detects the shift lever position so that the engine cannot be started when the shift lever is not in P or N.
The TCM determines that there is a problem with the switch or related parts if it receives more than 1 position signal simultaneously, or receives no position signal at all.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
DATA LIST
Tech Tips
Using the intelligent tester 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.
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 ON.
Turn the intelligent tester on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / ECT / Data List.
According to the display on the tester, read the Data List.
| Tester Display | Measurement Item/Range | Normal Condition | Diagnostic Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Neutral Position SW Signal | PNP switch status/ ON or OFF |
|
When the shift lever position displayed on the intelligent tester differs from the actual position, the adjustment of the PNP switch or shift cable may be incorrect. |
| Shift SW Status (R Range) | PNP switch status/ ON or OFF |
|
When the shift lever position displayed on the intelligent tester differs from the actual position, the adjustment of the PNP switch or shift cable may be incorrect. |
| Shift SW Status (D Range) | PNP switch status/ ON or OFF |
|
When the shift lever position displayed on the intelligent tester differs from the actual position, the adjustment of the PNP switch or shift cable may be incorrect. |
