    DTC Fault Trigger Conditions 

    DTC Description Fault Trigger Condition
    GSM P0919:00 Gear Shift Position Control Error: No Sub Type Information This CMDTC sets if the GSM detects that the rotary gear shift knob is unable to return the rotary gear shift knob to Park due to an internal GSM failure.

    Possible Sources 

    • Inspect rotary shift knob for any interference issues that would cause it not to return to park.
    • Connectors damaged or pushed-out terminals, circuitry open or high resistance in the voltage feed wiring to the GSM or a loose ground.
    • Discharged battery/charging system
    • GSM

  2. H1 VERIFY THE BATTERY IS FULLY CHARGED

    • NOTE: If necessary connect the battery charger to the vehicle battery to insure a steady battery voltage while performing this test.

      VERIFY battery is fully charged before proceeding with this test. REFER to: Battery .

    Is the battery fully charged? 

    Yes  GO to  H2
    No  CHARGE or INSTALL a new battery if necessary. REFER to: Battery .

  3. H2 CHECK THE GSM (GEAR SHIFT MODULE) FOR DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTCS)

    • Using a diagnostic scan tool, carry out the GSM self-test.

    Are any DTCs retrieved? 

    Yes  If any system voltage or internal module diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) are present, RESOLVE those first. REFER to the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Chart . For P0919 and/or P0929, GO to  H3 For P1753, GO to  H5
    No  GO to  H4

    • Reconnect the GSM connectors. Make sure they seat and latch correctly.

    • Operate the system and verify the concern is still present

    Is the concern still present? 

    Yes  CHECK OASIS for any applicable TSBs. If a TSB exists for this concern, DISCONTINUE this test and FOLLOW TSB instructions. If no TSBs address this concern, INSTALL a new GSM. REFER to: Gear Shift Module (GSM) .
    No  The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern may have been caused by module connections. ADDRESS the root cause of any connector or pin issues.
