What does P0820 Mean? OBD-II Code Powertrain Control Module (PCM) failure is defined as a Gear Lever X-Y Position Sensor Circuit The Gear Lever Position Sensor tells the engine computer (PCM) what gear the transmission is in. This sensor is usually built into the Shift Lever. If the Gear Lever Position Sensor gives the PCM an implausible signal, code P0820 is set. engine code P0820P0820 fixobd P0820dtc P0820obd code P0820obd2 P0820P0820 car codediagnostic code P0820car code P0820check engine code P0820fehlercode P0820P0820 fiatcodigo P0820codigo falla P0820P0820 kody b??dówcodigo de falla P0820 What are the common causes of P0820 ? By far the most common cause of this code is from a misadjusted transmission range sensor. Other causes may include a defective range sensor, open, shorted, corroded, or otherwise damaged wiring and/or electrical connectors. If recent transmission repairs have been performed, suspect that the range sensor was not readjusted properly. Sensor retaining bolts should always be installed using thread locking compound to ensure proper torque longevity. Technicians also report the presence of excessive corrosion in the sensor connector as the cause of this code being stored. How do you troubleshoot P0820 ? Deactivation of cylinders is achieved by releasing a synchroniser pin that normally interlocks the cam follower and rocker arms. P0820 code resolves the synchroniser pin is released using hydraulic pressure which is controlled by a dedicated solenoid.
