    What does P0854 Mean?

    The PCM has detected a malfunction in the drive switch input circuit. The transfer case shift selector range sensor inputs data to the PCM where it is utilized to calculate engine RPM, fuel delivery strategy, and engine timing, among other things. This code applies to vehicles equipped with four-wheel drive and an automatic transmission only.

    What are the common causes of P0854 ?
    • An air leak forward of the DPF will change the sensor readings resulting in the code
    • Rusty exhaust systems, cracked exhaust manifolds or damaged or missing gaskets or donuts will cause air leaks.
    • A large vacuum leak would cause a massive amount of un-metered air to enter the intake manifold resulting in an overly lean mixture.
