Pinpoint Test C : DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code) P1780: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2015 Ford F-150. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Refer to TRANSMISSION CONTROLS for schematic and connector information.
Normal Operation
The transmission control switch is a momentary contact switch located on the selector lever. When the switch is pressed the contacts close sending a voltage signal to the PCM and notifies the module to disable the overdrive gear. The PCM sends a message over the MS-CAN to the IPC which illuminates the tow haul indicator light in the IPC. When the switch is depressed again sportmode is enabled, a third button push enables the overdrive gear in the transmission and sends a message to the IPC extinguishing the tow haul light.
