The purpose of the diagnostic is to monitor the park sense circuit from the RF Hub. The RF Hub supplies B (+) on the park circuit to the TCMA. When the transmission is in park, the TCMA will ground the park circuit indicating to the RF Hub that the transmission is in park. If the TCMA detects an open or short to ground on the park circuit, the DTC will set.
