P07BE Transmission Park Position Sensor/Switch A/B Correlation

The two redundant park position sensors A and B disagree — one reports Park, the other does not. Until the discrepancy is cleared the TCM cannot trust either reading and falls back to a safe state (typically blocking key removal and engine restart).

Is it safe to drive with P07BE?

Usually safe for short trips, but don’t ignore it: the underlying fault can get more expensive over time.

Common causes

  • Most likelyOne of the two sensors drifting outside tolerance
  • PossibleMis-adjusted shift lever mechanism

Symptoms

  • Check engine or transmission warning light on
  • Harsh, delayed, or missing shifts
  • Possible limp mode (locked in one gear)
  • Slipping or shuddering during gear changes
