Turn ignition off. Disconnect ECM harness connector. See Figure . Check continuity between PNP switch harness connector terminal No. 1 and ECM harness connector terminal No. 42. See Fig 1 . Continuity should exist. Also, check harness for short to ground and short to power. If problem is found, repair as necessary. Perform DTC CONFIRMATION TEST to verify repair. If problem is not found, go to next step. - Check PNP Switch
Perform DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE under DTC P0705: PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH under DIAGNOSTIC TESTS in appropriate DIAGNOSIS article in AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS. If problem is found, repair as necessary. Perform DTC CONFIRMATION TEST to verify repair. If problem is not found, go to next step. - Check For Intermittent
