DTC P0705: Transmission Range Sensor Circuit Malfunction (PRNDL Input) [09/2014 - ]: Procedure
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (BATTERY - PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH)
- Disconnect the park/neutral position switch assembly connector.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition E4-1 (RB) - Body ground Ignition switch ON 11 to 14 V TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION*a Front view of wire harness connector
(to Park/Neutral Position Switch Assembly)
NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK: Go to next step
- Disconnect the park/neutral position switch assembly connector.
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (OUTPUT SIGNAL)
- Turn the ignition switch to ON.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition E4-4 (B) - Body ground Ignition switch ON 11 to 14 V TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION*a Front view of wire harness connector
(to Park/Neutral Position Switch Assembly)
NG → See step 7
OK: Go to next step
- Turn the ignition switch to ON.
- INSPECT PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH ASSEMBLY
- Disconnect the park/neutral position switch assembly connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below when the shift lever is moved to each position.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Shift Lever Position Specified Condition E4-4 (B) - E4-9 (L) P or N Below 1 Ω Except P and N 10 kΩ or higher E4-1 (RB) - E4-3 (PL) P Below 1 Ω Except P 10 kΩ or higher E4-1 (RB) - E4-8 (NL) N Below 1 Ω Except N 10 kΩ or higher E4-1 (RB) - E4-2 (RL) R Below 1 Ω Except R 10 kΩ or higher E4-1 (RB) - E4-7 (DL) D, S, "+" or "-" Below 1 Ω Except D, S, "+" and "-" 10 kΩ or higher TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION*a Component without harness connected
(Park/Neutral Position Switch Assembly)
NG → See step 9
OK: Go to next step
- Disconnect the park/neutral position switch assembly connector.
- INSPECT LOWER SHIFT LEVER ASSEMBLY (TRANSMISSION CONTROL SWITCH)
- Connect the park/neutral position switch assembly connector.
- Disconnect the transmission control switch connector from lower shift lever assembly.
- Measure resistance according to the value(s) in the table below when the shift lever is moved to each position.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Shift Position Specified Condition I44-4 (IG) - I44-5 (S) S, "+" and "-" Below 1 Ω Except S, "+" and "-" 10 kΩ or higher TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION*a Component without harness connected
(Transmission Control Switch)
NG → See step 10
OK: Go to next step
- Connect the park/neutral position switch assembly connector.
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (BATTERY - ECM)
- Connect the transmission control switch connector.
- Disconnect the ECM connectors.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON, and measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below when the shift lever is moved to each position.
Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Shift Lever Position Specified Condition A25-27 (S) - Body ground S, "+" or "-" 11 to 14 V Except S, "+" and "-" Below 1 V TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION*a Front view of wire harness connector
(to ECM)
NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK: Go to next step
- Connect the transmission control switch connector.
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH - ECM)
- Disconnect the ECM connectors.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON, and measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below when the shift lever is moved to each position.
Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Shift Lever Position Specified Condition E26-70 (P) - Body ground P 11 to 14 V Except P Below 1 V E26-71 (N) - Body ground N 11 to 14 V Except N Below 1 V E26-66 (R) - Body ground R 11 to 14 V* Except R Below 1 V E26-67 (D) - Body ground D, S, "+" or "-" 11 to 14 V Except D, S, "+" and "-" Below 1 V HINT:
*: The voltage will drop slightly due to lighting up of the back up light.

(to ECM)Result
Result Proceed to OK A NG B
B → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
A → See step 8
- Disconnect the ECM connectors.
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH - ECM)
- Turn the ignition switch off.
- Disconnect the ECM connector.
- Disconnect the park/neutral position switch assembly connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance (Check for Open)
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition E4-4 (B) - E26-63 (NSW) Always Below 1 Ω Standard Resistance (Check for Short)
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition E4-4 (B) or E26-63 (NSW) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher Result
Result Proceed to OK A NG B
B → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
A → See step 8
- REPLACE ECM. Refer to COMPONENTS [09/2014 - ]
- REPLACE PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH ASSEMBLY. Refer to COMPONENTS [09/2014 - ]
- REPLACE LOWER SHIFT LEVER ASSEMBLY. Refer to COMPONENTS [09/2014 - ]
