DTC P0705: Short in Transmission Range Switch Circuit (Multiple Shift-position Input)

NOTE:
^ Before you troubleshoot, record all freeze data and any on-board snapshot, and review General Troubleshooting Information.
^ This code is caused by an electrical circuit problem and cannot be caused by a mechanical problem in the transmission.

1. Clear the DTC with the HDS.
2. Start the engine.
3. With the brake pedal pressed, move the shift lever through all positions. Stop for at least 1 second in each position, and monitor the OBD status for P0705 in the DTCs/Freeze Data in A/T Mode Menu for a pass/fail.
Does the result indicate FAILED?
YES - Go to step 4.
NO - Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for an intermittent short in the wire between the transmission range switch and the PCM. If the HDS indicates NOT COMPLETED, return to step 2 and recheck.

4. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
5. Inspect the transmission range switch.
Is the switch OK?
YES - With the switch connector disconnected, go to step 6.
NO - Replace the transmission range switch, then go to step 48.

6. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).





7. Measure voltage between transmission range switch connector terminals No. 6 and No. 10.
Is there battery voltage?

18. Measure voltage between transmission range switch connector terminals No. 2 and No. 10.
Is there about 5 V?
YES - Go to step 23.
NO - Go to step 19.

19. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
20. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.
21. Disconnect PCM connector B (44P).
