Circuit Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2000 Pontiac Firebird, 2000 Chevrolet Corvette, and 2000 Chevrolet Camaro. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Transaxle Range Switch (TRS) is part of Park/Neutral Position (PNP) and back-up switch. Combination of 4 TRS input states determine PCM commanded shift pattern. A problem which causes PCM to detect an invalid transaxle range input combination will set this DTC.

Conditions for setting DTC are: system voltage is greater than 8 volts, PCM detects TRS indicates a range other than Park or Neutral when engine is started and diagnostic fails 2 out of 4 tests.
