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. P07BA is the same check as P07B4 for sensor B: above 853 counts (83.3 % of 5 V), ICCM above 70 %, after two trips. GM's bulletin for the 2017 LaCrosse, XT5 and Bolt EV lists it when the selector knob is not fully seated or the connector is not latched.
