When the shift lever is in the D (Drive) position the output signal of Tansaxle Range Switch is 12V and in all other positions the voltage is 0V. The TCM judges the shift lever position by reading all signals, for the TRANSMISSION Range Switch, simultaneously.
The TCM sets this code when patterns are out of specification based on the table shown below.
The TRANSMISSION Range Switch has no output signal for an extended period of time.
