P0706 - Transmission Range Sensor Circuit Range/Performance

Transmission range sensor performance is out of expected range.

Treat the code as the starting point: compare symptoms, likely causes, and repair paths before pricing parts or moving into an estimate.

Code Overview

Transmission range sensor performance is out of expected range.

Common Causes

• Faulty transmission range sensor
• Misadjusted shift linkage
• Wiring issue
• Internal transmission issue

Diagnostic Steps

1. Verify PRNDL indicator matches shifter position
2. Inspect transmission connector
3. Check linkage adjustment
4. Scan for related transmission codes

Likely Repairs & Cost Guides

Use symptoms, scan data, and quick checks to confirm the likely repair path before pricing parts. The estimator helps compare repair paths before replacing anything unnecessarily.

Related OBD Codes

Browse nearby code-family pages when the same fault pattern overlaps across systems, such as misfire, lean fuel trim, EVAP sealing, cooling, or charging faults.

Next Steps

Move from code lookup to diagnosis, then estimate the likely repair only after symptoms, causes, and checks point to the same path.
