DTC P0850: Park/Neutral Switch Performance: Notes

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Dodge Intrepid, 2002 Chrysler Intrepid, 2002 Chrysler Concorde, and 2002 Chrysler 300M. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: Vehicles are equipped with a Transmission Range (TR) sensor. TR sensor may also be referred to as Park/Neutral Position (PNP) switch. If a component fails, PCM may use substitute value in its calculations to continue engine operation. In this condition, commonly known as limp-in mode, vehicle runs but driveability will not be optimum. TR sensor circuit is monitored when transaxle is in Park, Neutral or Drive and vehicle is not in limp-in mode.

NOTE: For circuit reference, see CONNECTOR IDENTIFICATION and/or WIRING DIAGRAMS .

NOTE: Always perform POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST VER-5 after repair is completed.
