| 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 ECM.
| DTC Code | DTC Detection Conditions | Trouble Areas |
|---|---|---|
| P0705 | 2 or more switches are ON simultaneously for P (NSW), R, N (NSW), D, 2 or L positions (2 trip detection logic). |
|
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
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 the engine can be started only when the shift lever is in P or N.
When the park/neutral position switch sends more than one signal at a time from switch positions P, R, N, D, 2 or L, the ECM interprets this as a fault in the switch. The ECM will illuminate the MIL and store the DTC.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
Tech Tips
Using the Data List of the intelligent tester 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 save time.
Warm up the engine.
Turn the ignition switch off.
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON and push the tester main switch on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List.
Follow the instructions on the tester and 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 |
Shift lever is:
|
When the shift lever position displayed on the intelligent tester differs from the actual position, the adjustment of the park/neutral position switch or shift cable may be incorrect. |
| Shift SW Status (R Range) | Park/neutral position switch status/ ON or OFF |
Shift lever is:
|
When the shift lever position displayed on the intelligent tester differs from the actual position, the adjustment of the park/neutral position switch or shift cable may be incorrect. |
| Shift SW Status (3 Range) | Park/neutral position switch status/ ON or OFF |
Shift lever is:
|
When the shift lever position displayed on the intelligent tester differs from the actual position, the adjustment of the park/neutral position switch or shift cable may be incorrect. |
| Shift SW Status (2 Range) | Park/neutral position switch status/ ON or OFF |
Shift lever is:
|
When the shift lever position displayed on the intelligent tester differs from the actual position, the adjustment of the park/neutral position switch or shift cable may be incorrect. |
| Shift SW Status (L Range) | Park/neutral position switch status/ ON or OFF |
Shift lever is:
|
When the shift lever position displayed on the intelligent tester differs from the actual position, the adjustment of the park/neutral position switch or shift cable may be incorrect. |
Note
In the table above, 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.
Tech Tips
When the malfunction is found when the shift lever is in 3, start from *1. When the malfunction is found when the shift lever is not in 3, start from *2.
PROCEDURE
INSPECT PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH*1
Disconnect the N1 park/neutral position switch connector.
Measure the resistance of the park/neutral position switch when the shift lever is moved to each position.

INSPECT SHIFT LOCK CONTROL ECU*2
Disconnect the S43 ECU connector.
Measure the resistance of the ECU when the shift lever is moved to each position.
