Diagnostic Fault Information

Typical Scan Tool Data

Circuit/System Description

The transmission manual shift shaft switch assembly, also known as the Internal Mode Switch (IMS), is a sliding contact switch attached to the

manual shift shaft inside the transmission case. The Park/Neutral Position (PNP) Switch is integrated into the IMS and connects to the Transmission

Control Module (TCM) lead-frame through a short wire harness. The circuit uses the TCM as a pass-through connector only. The Park/Neutral

Signal is sent from the park/neutral switch directly to the engine control module (ECM) and is used for engine start enable.

Conditions for Running the DTC

* Ignition voltage is between 8-18 volts.

* Engine speed is greater than 1000 RPM.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

P0850 and P0851

* The ECM detects the Park/Neutral switch signal equals 0 volts (Park/Neutral) when the IMS reports a Drive range for 0.2 second.

* TP is equal to or greater than 10 percent.

* Engine torque is equal to or greater than 75 Nm (55 lb ft).

* Vehicle speed is equal or greater than 10 km/h (6 mph).

P0852

The ECM detects the Park/Neutral switch signal equals 12 volts (In-Gear) when the IMS reports a Park/Neutral range for 0.2 second.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

* DTCs P0850, P0851, and P0852 are Type C DTCs.

* The ECM uses IMS Range for engine start-up.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

DTCs P0850, P0851, and P0852 are Type C DTCs.
