Pinpoint Test C: Transmission Range (Tr) Sensor

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Mercury Montego, 2005 Ford Freestyle, and 2005 Ford Five Hundred. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: The transmission control module (TCM) is integrated into the mechatronic assembly. If installing a new transaxle or a mechatronic assembly, the TCM will need to be checked and recalibrated (reflashed) to the latest level calibration available.

    • Check to make sure the transaxle harness connector is fully seated, pins are fully engaged in connector and in good condition before proceeding.
    • Connect the scan tool.
    • Key in ON position.
    • Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: PID: TR.
    • Move the range selector throughout all the gear ranges.
    • Does the PID TR match all the selected gears? 
    1. Yes  : CLEAR all DTCs. ROAD TEST to verify if concern is still present. Concern could be intermittent.
    2. No  : ADJUST the shift cable, REFER to AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE/TRANSMISSION EXTERNAL CONTROLS . CLEAR the DTCs code. If the DTC code reappears it is internal to the transaxle. REFER to TRANSMISSION RANGE (TR) SENSOR .
