Park Switch Circuit Range/Performance

Safe to keep driving?Risk not classifiedDepends on symptoms

A supported severity assessment is not available for this code. The code alone cannot establish safe driving. Stop for red warnings, low oil pressure, overheating, abnormal braking or severely rough running.

LowCautionCritical

No green/yellow/red level was assigned without sufficient evidence.

Technical explanation

The signal from the transmission park position switch is inconsistent or outside of the defined normal operating range. Manufacturer-specific definition; confirm applicability in the service information for the exact vehicle.

Check the fuses before ordering a part

An OBD code describes a detected condition; it does not tell you which part to replace. Start with the fuse for the affected circuit.

Find the fuse for your vehicleChoose the make and model, then look up the fuse position in the catalogue.

If the fuse is good, carry on like this:

  1. Check the relevant supplies and connectionsWhere the diagnostic procedure calls for electrical checks, verify supply, ground and connectors under the manufacturer’s activation conditions.
  2. Run the specified component testUse the manufacturer’s test for this code and component before deciding it has failed.
  3. Order only after the fault is demonstratedReplace a part only when the prescribed tests identify it as defective.
Check details
  • Identify the circuit and any relevant fuse: Confirm the vehicle, engine, code meaning and stored operating conditions first. A fuse link is a location aid, not evidence that the fuse caused this code. Use the specified type and rating; do not repeatedly replace a fuse that opens.
  • Check the relevant supplies and connections: Use the specified engine state, circuit conditions and expected values. Have live measurements performed by someone qualified. For non-electrical faults, follow the relevant mechanical, fluid, pressure or leak checks instead.
  • Run the specified component test: Do not apply a generic resistance range. Any resistance or continuity test requires a de-energized circuit and an isolated component, with the correct pins and temperature from the procedure. Some components need a different kind of test.
  • Order only after the fault is demonstrated: If results are normal, continue the relevant wiring, control, mechanical or intermittent diagnosis. Check for related faults and verify the repair under the required conditions. A code or a completed checklist alone does not justify replacement.

If the procedure involves airbag/SRS, pretensioners or a high-voltage system, stop DIY testing and use qualified service. Do not probe these circuits with a multimeter.

Manuals, components and vehicle guides

Find the relevant procedure in the workshop manual for your vehicle. A fault code alone does not identify a failed part, powertrain or exact schematic.

Manuals open at their original source. Exact diagram availability depends on the build year, engine and manufacturer access.

Body and comfort

General system guidance · not a confirmed diagnosis

Door, window, climate and restraint codes refer to different functions. Confirm the affected subsystem first.

The association is based on the imported description. This information explains the system; it does not confirm a procedure for the exact code, model or engine. Verify applicability in manufacturer documentation.

Manufacturer-specific definition: verify its meaning and subtype with a compatible tool before using this general guide.

Checks for this type of system

  1. Identify the reporting module and feature.
  2. Record symptoms and recent work on the equipment.
  3. Have relevant power, commands and mechanical operation checked.

Useful diagnostic data, where available

  • Available switch and actuator positions or states.
  • Module power and messages for the affected subsystem.

Normal values and thresholds vary by vehicle and are not assumed here.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Do not force jammed powered mechanisms.
  • Never treat airbags or pretensioners like ordinary comfort components.

Catalogue associations help searching and do not confirm code applicability for every model, year and engine combination. Check the vehicle service information.
