SENSOR-TRANSMISSION RANGE
DESCRIPTION
The Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) has 3 primary
functions:
Provide a PARK/NEUTRAL start signal to the
engine controller and the starter relay.
Turn the Back-up lamps on when the transmis-
sion is in REVERSE and the engine (ignition) is
on.
Provide a transmission range signal to the instru-
ment cluster.
The sensor is mounted in the transmission housing
near the valve body, just above the pan rail. It’s in the
same position as the Park/Neutral switch on other
transmissions. The TRS contacts a cammed surface
on the manual valve lever. The cammed surface trans-
lates the rotational motion of the manual lever into the
linear motion of the sensor. The cammed surface on
the manual lever is comprised of two parts controlling
the TRS signal: The insulator portion contacts the
switch poppet when the manual lever is not in PARK
or NEUTRAL. The manual lever itself contacts the
poppet when the lever is in PARK or NEUTRAL; pro-
viding a ground for the signal from the starter relay
and the appropriate engine controller.
OPERATION
As the switch moves through its linear motion contacts
slide across a circuit board which changes the resis-
tance between the range sensing pins of the switch. A
power supply on the instrument cluster provides a reg-
ulated voltage signal to the switch. The return signal is
decoded by the cluster, which then controls the
PRNDL display to correspond with the correct trans-
mission range. A bus message of transmission range 
Page 3964 of 5267

is also sent by the cluster. In REVERSE range a second contact set closes thecircuit providing power to the
reverse lamps.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR (TRS)
NOTE: For all circuit identification in the following steps, Refer to the appropriate Wiring Information.
1. Raise vehicle on suitable hoist.
2. Disconnect the vehicle’s shift cable from the manual lever.
3. With the manual lever in the PARK position (the PARK position is with the manual lever moved to the full rear-
ward position), measure the resistance between the Park/Neutral PositionSensepinoftheTRSandthetrans-
mission case. The resistance should be less than 5 ohms.
4. With the manual lever in the NEUTRAL position (the NEUTRAL position is with the manual lever moved two
detents forward of the full rearward position), measure the resistance between the Park/Neutral Position Sense
pin of the TRS and the transmission case. The resistance should be less than5ohms.
5. If the resistance is greater than 5 ohms in either of the previous steps, check for a dirty contact between the tip
of the TRS rod and the valve body manual lever. If the contact is OK, replace the TRS.
6. With the manual lever in the REVERSE position (the REVERSE position is with the manual lever moved one
detent forward of the full rearward position), measure the resistance between the Fused Ignition Switch Output

Theory of Operation
The A/C Heater Control drives the Passenger Blend Door Actuator via the (C33) Passenger Blend Door Driver cir-
cuit and the (C34) Common Door Driver circuit. All of the door actuators share the (C34) Common Door Driver
circuit. Inside the A/C Heater Control, each door actuator has its own unique driver, but all share a single common
door driver circuit. Due to the shared circuitry similar DTCs can set at thesame time for multiple actuators depend-
ing upon the type of short, its location, and the direction the actuator is moving when the short is present.
When Monitored:
When the Actuator DTC Detection Test is executed.
Set Condition:
If the (C33) Passenger Blend Door Driver circuit is shorted to voltage.
