Auto Shift Manual Mode Circuit High

Severity
Low
Driving
No driving restriction

The auto shift manual mode circuit is stuck high - typically shorted to voltage or open circuit. The module sees the same mode state regardless of the selector, so manual mode will either be permanently unavailable or permanently reported.

Possible causes

What you might notice

What to check, in order

  1. Watch the mode state without touching the selector.
  2. Unplug the switch and check whether the high reading persists at the harness.
  3. Inspect the selector for spilled drink.
  4. Check the connector under the console.
  5. Confirm automatic shifting is unaffected.
