DTC P0705: Transmission Range Sensor Circuit Malfunction (PRNDL Input) [11/2021 - ]: Procedure

1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).
3. Turn the Techstream on.
4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / ECT / Data List / Shift SW Status (P Range), Shift SW Status (R Range), Shift SW Status (N Range), Shift SW Status (D Range).
5. Read the Data List according to the display on the Techstream.

   Powertrain > ECT > Data List 

   Tester Display	Measurement Item	Range	Normal Condition	Diagnostic Note
   Shift SW Status (P Range)	Park/neutral position switch status	ON or OFF	ON: Shift lever in P OFF: Shift lever not in P	When the shift lever position displayed on the Techstream differs from the actual position, adjustment of the park/neutral position switch assembly or shift cable may be incorrect
   Shift SW Status (R Range)	Park/neutral position switch status	ON or OFF	ON: Shift lever in R OFF: Shift lever not in R	When the shift lever position displayed on the Techstream differs from the actual position, adjustment of the park/neutral position switch assembly or shift cable may be incorrect
   Shift SW Status (N Range)	Park/neutral position switch status	ON or OFF	ON: Shift lever in N OFF: Shift lever not in N	When the shift lever position displayed on the Techstream differs from the actual position, adjustment of the park/neutral position switch assembly or shift cable may be incorrect
   Shift SW Status (D Range)	Park/neutral position switch status	ON or OFF	ON: Shift lever in D or M OFF: Shift lever not in D or M	When the shift lever position displayed on the Techstream differs from the actual position, adjustment of the park/neutral position switch assembly or shift cable may be incorrect

2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

   Standard Resistance

   Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
   6 (PL) - 2 (RB)	Shift lever in P	Below 1 Ω
   1 (RL) - 2 (RB)	Shift lever in R	Below 1 Ω
   9 (NL) - 2 (RB)	Shift lever in N	Below 1 Ω
   7 (DL) - 2 (RB)	Shift lever in D or M	Below 1 Ω
   6 (PL) - 2 (RB)	Shift lever not in P	10 kΩ or higher
   1 (RL) - 2 (RB)	Shift lever not in R	10 kΩ or higher
   9 (NL) - 2 (RB)	Shift lever not in N	10 kΩ or higher
   7 (DL) - 2 (RB)	Shift lever not in D or M	10 kΩ or higher

2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).
3. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

   Standard Voltage

   Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
   A118-3 (P) - Body ground	Engine switch on (IG) Shift lever in P	11 to 14 V
   A118-11 (R) - Body ground	Engine switch on (IG) Shift lever in R	11 to 14 V*
   A118-10 (N) - Body ground	Engine switch on (IG) Shift lever in N	11 to 14 V
   A118-20 (D) - Body ground	Engine switch on (IG) Shift lever in D or M	11 to 14 V
   A118-3 (P) - Body ground	Engine switch on (IG) Shift lever not in P	Below 1 V
   A118-11 (R) - Body ground	Engine switch on (IG) Shift lever not in R	Below 1 V
   A118-10 (N) - Body ground	Engine switch on (IG) Shift lever not in N	Below 1 V
   A118-20 (D) - Body ground	Engine switch on (IG) Shift lever not in D or M	Below 1 V

   HINT: 

   *: The voltage will drop slightly due to the turning on of the back up light.
