If you have Got Transmission trouble codes number P0705 or P0706 in a Dodge A604 transmission (Caravan, Town and County, Voyager) lets see what it means and all the possible causes for it. Remember to follow the general preliminary diagnosis routines before you start any repair.
Code Description: P0705 – Check Shifter Signal
P0706 – Check Shifter Signal
Functional Operation; The Transmission Control Module (TCM) monitors a series of switches (C1 through C4) inside the Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) in order to determine shift lever position. Each switch can either be open or closed, and each lever position has it’s own unique combination of open and closed switches. This combination is referred to as the ‘PRNDL code’ (Park, Reverse, Neutral, Drive, Low). If the TCM detects any invalid PRNDL code that lasts for more than .01 seconds, 3 times in one key cycle, the code will set. The ‘check engine’ light will not illuminate, and the transmission will not go into limp mode. However, the customer may complain that all or none of the PRNDL lights in the dash were illuminated.
