Transmission Position Switch/Sensor: Service and Repair
REMOVAL
1. Disconnect the battery ground cable.
NOTE: When battery voltage is removed from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM), all learned values will be cleared and reset to
predetermined values. When battery voltage is restored to the PCM, the vehicle may exhibit certain driveability concerns. It will be necessary to
drive the vehicle to allow the PCM to relearn values for optimum driveablilty and performance.
WARNING: The electrical power supply to the air suspension system must be shut off prior to hoisting, jacking or towing an air
suspension vehicle. This can be accomplished by turning off the air suspension switch located in the rear jack storage area. Failure to do
so may result in unexpected inflation or deflation of the air springs which may result in shifting of the vehicle during these operations.
2. Raise and support the vehicle.
3. Disconnect the shift cable from the manual control outer lever.
4. Disconnect the Digital Transmission Range (DTR) sensor electrical connector.
