P092BGear Shift Lock Solenoid/Actuator Control Circuit B Range/Performance
- Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
- How the car detects it
- Set when the actuator on shift lock circuit B is wired correctly but does not reach or report the commanded lock or release state. No manufacturer documents this code publicly. The closest documented case is Ford P0929 on circuit A, where the gear shift module logs that the commanded position was not reached and the cure is new GSM software or a new module. CARB asks for a functional check of output components where feasible. GHSP patents show that a shifter can carry a second lock solenoid, for instance a Neutral lock. P092A, P092C and P092D are the open, low and high faults of circuit B, P0929 the matching fault on circuit A. The lever may stay locked, or the lock may engage late.
- What you may notice
- Lever releases late or only after several tries
- Lever stays locked in one position
- Transmission or wrench warning lamp on
- Likely causes
- LikelyLock pin or actuator binding inside the shifter assembly
- PossibleShifter module software misjudging the actuator response
- RareWeak battery or poor supply leaving the solenoid too little force
- Repair
- Medium · Usually a job for a workshop.Typical cost: €80 – €800
