DTC P1705: Short in Transmission Range Switch Circuit (short to ground) NOTE:

- Record all freeze data before you troubleshoot.
- The illustration shows the example of connector terminal arrangement; connector terminal arrangement varies with the models.

1. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
2. Observe the A/T gear position indicator and shift each position separately.

Do any indicators stay on when the shift lever is not in that position?

YES - Go to step 3.

NO - Turn the ignition switch OFF, then go to step 4.

3. Clear the DTC and test-drive the vehicle.

Is DTC P1705 indicated?

YES - Review the freeze data. If the freeze data indicates more than one gear position indicator on at one time, go to step 4.

NO - Intermittent failure; wiggle the wire harness and check for an intermittent short to ground.

4. Disconnect the transmission range switch connector.

Do all gear position indicators go out?

YES - Replace the transmission range switch.

NO - Turn the ignition switch OFF, then go to step 6.

5. Test the transmission range switch (4-door model (see page 14-159) 5-door model (see page 14-160)).

Is the switch OK?

YES - Go to step 6.

NO - Replace the transmission range switch.

6. Connect the transmission range switch connector.

7. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).

8. Shift to any position other than .
9. Measure the voltage between PCM connector terminals C10 and A23 or A24.

PCM CONNECTORS

Wire side of female terminals

Is there battery voltage?

YES - 4-door model; Go to step 12.

5-door model; Go to step 10.

NO - Check for short in the wire between PCM connector terminal C10 and the transmission range switch or A/T gear position indicator and check for an open in the wires between PCM connector terminals A23 and A24 and body ground (G101). If the wires are OK, check for loose terminal fit in the PCM connectors. If necessary, substitute a known-good PCM and recheck.
