P07F0 Transmission Range Multi-Function Select Circuit High

Multi-function select circuit reads stuck high — short to battery voltage or pegged at maximum. Wiring faults of this kind typically come from chafing, water ingress at connector seals, or pin push-back — a wiggle test on the harness while the code is active often confirms the location.
