P07B6Transmission Park Position Sensor/Switch A Circuit Performance High
- Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
- Turns on the check-engine light
- Can trigger limp mode
- Needs a drive cycle to confirm a fix
- How the car detects it
- With electronic gear selection the park position sensor/switch reports the park request or position. On GM's shift-by-wire selectors (2017 LaCrosse, XT4/XT5, Bolt EV, later SUVs and pickups) it is the P button, read by two redundant analog sensors A and B with separate 'released' and 'pressed' voltage zones. P07B6 is the 'high' side of the plausibility check of sensor A. No manufacturer document available to us uses this code; GM covers the band between its zones with one code (P07B5); CARB does not require separate codes for each side of a two-sided plausibility check. Park request or position is then unreliable.
