P2E0AGear Lever Position Sensor C Circuit Low

  • Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
  • Turns on the check-engine light
  • Can trigger limp mode
How the car detects it
For P2E0A the module reads the signal of gear lever sensor C below the window a working sensor can occupy. On a voltage-output Hall sensor like those in Toyota's four-sensor selector patent (US10180184), this means a signal line pulled to ground, a missing feed or a sensor that has stopped driving its output. The same patent counts disconnection and short circuits as faults that can be detected continuously, and lets the remaining three sensors run a limp-home mode. No manufacturer documents P2E0A or tells what sensor C measures. CARB 1968.2 (e)(15) demands detection of out-of-range input values. The high side is P2E0B; GM's comparable per-axis low checks on its two-sensor lever are P082B and P089C, with a 5 % duty-cycle limit.
What you may notice
  • Warning lamp or shift message

  • No noticeable change while other sensors are valid
Likely causes
  • LikelySignal wire of sensor C shorted to ground
  • PossibleSupply of sensor C missing
  • PossibleSensor C output failed low
