p0705 code

[attickt]

we checked the grey connector highlighted, wiggled the cord at both connection points threw the gears and nothing happened it didnt even flicker on the gear indication screen on the HUD......so i dont suspect it to be that cord....when you wiggle the gear selector it seems to locate the gears, maybe a little off of where they should be but locates them and operates normally.....i am suspecting a bad contact within the gear selector inside the car itself.... could that be plausible ?

The code indicates that either one of the switches is not closing when changing shifter position (which would be visible by the cluster not changing) or that a switch is sticking, where two switches would be closed at the same time (I am not sure if you would see a sign of this on the cluster, or if it would just assume that the first one closed is the correct position).

The service manual indicates checking continuity on each of the switches (via the grey connector) with the shifter in each position.

The gear selector inside only moves the cable - It does not feed the selector position electrically, the tranny switch does that.
