DTC P070562 is stored when any of the above detection patterns are met.
This DTC indicate a problem with the park/neutral position switch assembly and the wire harness in the park/neutral position switch assembly circuit.
The park/neutral position switch assembly detects the shift lever position and sends signals to the ECM.
For safety, the park/neutral position switch assembly detects the shift lever position so that the engine can be started only when the shift lever is in P or N.
The park/neutral position switch assembly sends a signal to the ECM according to the shift lever position (P, R, N or D). The ECM determines that there is a problem with the switch or related parts if it receives more than 1 position signal simultaneously. The ECM will illuminate the MIL and store the DTC.
After repairs have been completed, clear the DTCs and then check that the vehicle has returned to normal by performing the following All Readiness check procedure.
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the GTS on.
Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
Turn the ignition switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the GTS on.
Wait with the shift lever in each position (P, R, N and D) for 60 seconds or more.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Transmission / Utility / All Readiness.
Input the DTC: P070513 or P070562.
Check the DTC judgment result.
| GTS Display | Description |
|---|---|
| NORMAL | ·
DTC judgment completed ·
System normal |
| ABNORMAL | ·
DTC judgment completed ·
System abnormal |
| INCOMPLETE | ·
DTC judgment not completed ·
Perform driving pattern after confirming DTC enabling conditions |
| N/A | ·
Unable to perform DTC judgment ·
Number of DTCs which do not fulfill DTC preconditions has reached ECU memory limit |
If the judgment result shows NORMAL, the system is normal.
If the judgment result shows ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.
If the judgment result shows INCOMPLETE or N/A, perform the Confirmation Driving Pattern and check the DTC judgment result again.
Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following procedure.
Perform registration and/or initialization when parts related to the automatic transmission are replaced.
DATA LIST
Using the GTS to read the Data List allows the values or states of switches, sensors, actuators and other items to be read without removing any parts. This non-intrusive inspection can be very useful because intermittent conditions or signals may be discovered before parts or wiring is disturbed. Reading the Data List information early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time.
In the table below, the values listed under "Normal Condition" are reference values. Do not depend solely on these reference values when deciding whether a part is faulty or not.
Warm up the engine.
Turn the ignition switch off.
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Transmission / Data List / Neutral Position SW, Shift SW Status (P Range), Shift SW Status (R Range), Shift SW Status (N Range), Shift SW Status (D Range).
Read the Data List according to the display on the GTS.
| Tester Display | Measurement Item | Range | Normal Condition | Diagnostic Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Neutral Position SW | Park/neutral position switch assembly status | ON or OFF | ·
ON: Shift lever in P or N ·
OFF: Shift lever not in P or N |
When the shift lever position displayed on the GTS differs from the actual position, adjustment of the park/neutral position switch or the shift cable may be incorrect. |

ON: Shift lever in R ·
OFF: Shift lever not in R |
When the shift lever position displayed on the GTS differs from the actual position, adjustment of the park/neutral position switch or the shift cable may be incorrect. |
| Shift SW Status (N Range) | Park/neutral position switch assembly status | ON or OFF | ·
ON: Shift lever in N ·
OFF: Shift lever not in N |
When the shift lever position displayed on the GTS differs from the actual position, adjustment of the park/neutral position switch or the shift cable may be incorrect. |
| Shift SW Status (D Range) | Park/neutral position switch assembly status | ON or OFF | ·
ON: Shift lever in S, "+" or "-" ·
OFF: Shift lever not in S, "+" or "-" |
When the shift lever position displayed on the GTS differs from the actual position, adjustment of the park/neutral position switch or the shift cable may be incorrect. |
