Digital Transmission Range Sensor

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

The digital Transmission Range (TR) sensor is located on outside of transaxle at manual lever. The TR sensor opens or closes a set of 4 switches that are monitored by the PCM. The internal switch signal corresponds with position of gearshift lever. The TR sensor completes the neutral/start and back-up lights circuits. Malfunction of the TR sensor may cause harsh engagements and firm shift feel. Improper shifting or shift selection and no engine cranking may also result.
