Pinpoint Test Al: The PRNDL Indicator Is Never On Or Never Displays P Or The SELECTSHIFT® Display Does Not Display The Selected Range

  1. Refer to INSTRUMENT CLUSTER for schematic and connector information.

    Normal Operation and Fault Conditions 

    See PRNDL Indicator. REFER to: Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) - System Operation and Component Description .

    If the transmission gear display mode, transmission gear display, or transmission gear lever position message is missing for 5 seconds or less, the PRNDL display remains in the last indication mode.

    If the transmission gear display mode, transmission gear display, or transmission gear lever position message is missing for 5 seconds or longer, the IPC defaults the PRNDL display off.

    DTC Fault Trigger Conditions 

    DTC Description Fault Trigger Condition
    IPC P1706:00 High Vehicle Speed Observed in Park: No Sub Type Information A continuous and on-demand DTC that sets in the IPC if the IPC detects a park detect input with vehicle speed over 16 km/h (10 mph) for more than 5 seconds, indicating that the vehicle is in park while in motion.

    Possible Sources 

    • Wiring, terminals or connectors
    • Communication concern
    • Transmission concern
    • Park position detect switch
    • GWM
    • PCM concern
    • IPC

    Visual Inspection and Pre-checks 

    • Verify the vehicle is not in transport mode.

  2. AL1 RETRIEVE THE RECORDED DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTCS) FROM THE IPC (INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER) SELF-TEST

    • Ignition ON.

    • Using a diagnostic scan tool, perform the IPC self-test.

    Are any Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) recorded? 

    Yes  REFER to DTC Chart: IPC .
    No  GO to  AL2

  3. AL2 CHECK THE GWM (GATEWAY MODULE A) DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTCS)

    • Using a diagnostic scan tool, check the GWM Continuous Memory Diagnostic Trouble Codes (CMDTCs).

    Are any Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) recorded? 

    Yes  REFER to: Communications Network .
    No  GO to  AL3

  4. AL3 RETRIEVE THE RECORDED DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTCS) FROM THE PCM (POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE) KOEO (KEY ON, ENGINE OFF) SELF-TEST

    • Ignition ON.

    • Using a diagnostic scan tool, perform the PCM KOEO self-test.

    Are any Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) recorded? 

    Yes  REFER to the appropriate Electronic Engine Controls article .
    No  For a SelectShift® concern, GO to  AL4 For other PRNDL concerns, GO to  AL5

  5. AL4 CHECK THE SELECTSHIFT® FEATURE OPERATION

    • Operate the SelectShift® feature and confirm the transmission shifts up and down using the SelectShift® switch.

    Does the SelectShift® feature operate correctly? 

    Yes  INSTALL a new IPC. Refer to Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) 
    No  REFER to: External Controls .

  6. AL5 BYPASS THE SELECTOR LEVER AND CHECK THE PARK DETECT INPUT TO THE IPC (INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER)

    • Ignition OFF.

    • Disconnect Selector Lever C2810.

    • Connect:
      Lead 1 Measurement / Action Lead 2
      C2810-9

      		 Ground

    • Ignition ON.

    • Monitor the PRNDL indicator with the jumper wire installed and with the jumper wire removed.

    Does the PRNDL display P with the jumper wire removed and blank with the jumper wire connected? 

    Yes  REMOVE the fused jumper wire. INSTALL a new selector lever. REFER to: External Controls .
    No  REMOVE the fused jumper wire. GO to  AL6

  7. AL6 CHECK THE SELECTOR LEVER INPUT CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN BETWEEN THE IPC (INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER) AND THE SELECTOR LEVER

    • Ignition OFF.

    • Disconnect IPC C220.

    • Measure:
      Positive Lead Measurement / Action Negative Lead
      C220-4
      GFD573124Courtesy of FORD MOTOR COMPANY
      		 C2810-9

    Is the resistance less than 3 ohms? 

    Yes  GO to  AL7
    No  REPAIR the circuit.

  8. AL7 CHECK THE SELECTOR LEVER INPUT CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND AT THE IPC (INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER)

    • Measure:
      Positive Lead Measurement / Action Negative Lead
      C220-4
      GFD573124Courtesy of FORD MOTOR COMPANY
      		 Ground

    Is the resistance greater than 10, 000 ohms? 

    Yes  GO to  AL8
    No  REPAIR the circuit.

  9. AL8 CHECK FOR CORRECT IPC (INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER) OPERATION

    • Ignition OFF.

    • Disconnect and inspect the IPC connector.

    • Repair:

      • corrosion (install new connector or terminals - clean module pins)
      • damaged or bent pins - install new terminals/pins
      • pushed-out pins - install new pins as necessary

    • Reconnect the IPC connector. Make sure it seats and latches correctly.

    • Operate the system and determine if the concern is still present.

    Is the concern still present? 

    Yes  CHECK OASIS for any applicable service articles: TSB, GSB, SSM or FSA. If a service article exists for this concern, DISCONTINUE this test and FOLLOW the service article instructions. If no service articles address this concern, INSTALL a new IPC. Refer to Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC)  .
    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.
