PNP Switch Malfunction (M30 4L60E, M70 4L70E)
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 GMC Sierra, 2009 Chevrolet Silverado, and 2009 Chevrolet Cab & Chassis Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Inspect the range selector lever cable for proper adjustment. Refer to Range Selector Lever Cable Adjustment .
- Inspect the park/neutral position switch for proper adjustment. Refer to Manual Shift Detent Lever with Shaft Position Switch Assembly Replacement .
- Ignition OFF. Disconnect the harness connector from the park/neutral switch.
- Ignition ON. Probe the ground circuit terminal 7 with a test lamp that is connected to B+. Verify that the test lamp illuminates.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
- Verify that the scan tool PNP Switch parameter is In Gear.
- If not the specified value, test the signal circuit terminal 3 for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
- Install a 3 A fused jumper wire between the ground circuit terminal 7 and the signal circuit terminal 3. Verify that the scan tool PNP Switch parameter is Park/Neutral.
- If not the specified value, test the signal circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the park/neutral position switch.
