P077DOutput Shaft Speed Sensor Circuit High

  • Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
  • Turns on the check-engine light
  • Matters for the ITP
  • Can trigger limp mode
How the car detects it
GM's transmission modules from 2019 to 2025 (9- and 10-speeds) also read the active output speed sensor's line voltage as an analog value. P077D is the mirror of P077C: the voltage is above 4.75 V – a short to the module supply of under about 0.5 Ω – for more than 0.05 s, after one trip. GM then blocks the no-signal and ratio checks; a GM hybrid also blocks its idle diagnosis. Without usable output speed the transmission enters limp mode, and speedometer or cruise control may fail.
What you may notice
  • Check engine light at once (GM)
  • Limp mode
  • Speedometer or cruise control failed
  • Shift problems
Likely causes
  • LikelySignal wire shorted to sensor supply or battery voltage
  • PossibleSensor faulty internally
  • PossibleGround fault at the sensor, corroded connector
  • RareModule input
Inspection (ITP)
Matters for the ITP. While the check-engine light is on, the car fails the emissions check.
