Condition 1
The transmission direction, indicated by both the IMS range and direction switch circuits, are valid but do not match.
Condition 2
* One IMS direction switch circuit has failed.
* The HPCM calculates a transmission direction base upon the remaining IMS direction circuits.
* The calculated HPCM transmission direction does not match the direction indicated by the IMS range switch circuits.
Condition 3
* One IMS direction switch circuit has failed.
* The HPCM calculates a transmission direction based upon the remaining IMS direction circuits.
* The IMS range switch indicated a transitional position.
Condition 4
* One IMS direction switch circuit has failed.
* The HPCM calculates a transmission direction based upon the remaining IMS direction circuits.
* The TCM has indicated at least one IMS range switch circuit has failed.
Condition 5
* More than one IMS direction circuit has failed and the HPCM cannot calculate a transmission direction.
* The IMS range switch indicates a transitional position.
Condition 6
* More than one IMS direction circuit has failed and the HPCM cannot calculate a transmission direction.
* The TCM has indicated at least one IMS range switch circuit has failed.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
* DTC P16F4 is a Type A DTC.
* The HPCM commands the battery energy control module (BECM) to open the high voltage contactor relays.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
DTC P16F4 is a Type A DTC.
Diagnostic Aids
If IMS circuit DTCs P181C-P181F, P183A-P183F, P184A or P184B are set, perform those diagnostics first.
