How do I fix code P0705?

What repairs can fix the P0705 code?

  1. Repairing an open or short in the TRS circuit.
  2. Replacing a faulty TCM.
  3. Replacing a faulty ECM.
  4. Changing the transmission fluid and filter.
  5. Adjusting the linkage connecting the shift lever on the transmission to the gear shifter inside the car.

What causes P0705 code?

Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) P0705 code stands for “Transmission Range Sensor Circuit Malfunction (PRNDL Input).” It is triggered when the transmission range sensor cannot send data or provides erroneous input to the transmission control (TCM) or powertrain control (PCM) modules.

What are the symptoms of a bad transmission range sensor?

Symptoms of a bad transmission range sensor:

  • The car doesn’t start and will not move.
  • Transmission shifts into an unexpected gear.
  • The vehicle will go into limp mode.

  1. Adjust or replace the transmission range sensor / neutral safety switch.
  2. Repair or replace damaged wiring connectors.
  3. Repair or replace the shift linkage (common in older vehicles)

What is a transmission range sensor?

Transmission range sensors record the transmission speed. This information is required by the control unit to regulate the shifting pressure when shifting gears and to decide which gear needs to be engaged at which point. There are two types of transmission range sensor design: Hall generators and inductive sensors.

What is the difference between vehicle speed sensor and transmission speed sensor?

The vehicle speed sensor (VSS) is also commonly referred to as a transmission speed sensor or output shaft speed sensor. It is a small device—typically mounted somewhere on the transmission—that determines how fast your vehicle is going by measuring the rotation of a toothed wheel on a shaft inside the transmission.
