Do you know how many MASTER mechanics would just throw their hands up and say "DONT KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS" but charge hundreds of dollars to diagnose a problem.Ive been watching your videos for awhile now.You have extensive diagnostistic knowledge and abilities.Your a bulldog when it comes to solving tricky auto issues.And I get the impression your an honest guy..Man I wish you were located in my city.No one else would touch my car.

Good job man , great fix no parts required 🤜

I like the way you trouble shoot and look for the root of the problem, nice job!

It's amazing what a little research can reveal. I found this video to be very informative. Thank you for publishing it.

Thanks for the video. Great work. Glad to see I'm not the only one who has to do a few retakes and gather my thoughts before recording lol

Thanks for this, I have a RAV4 with the same problem coming in next week for repair. I had already done the same tests with the scantool PIDs with the same results, so I could not justify replacing the range switch. I did not however think to check the sports PID. I almost bet I will be able to clean and refit that unit and solve the problem. You got a like and a sub from a very old tech in New Zealand.

Excellent fix. It’s great having techs that help and share their knowledge and experience. Oz stay safe and well. Artie 👍

Honda dealership would of tried changing all the hoses and charged $1000 for such, then gave you back the vehicle knowing it wouldn't fix it. Then told you it was a bad engine and tried selling you a used one. This happened to me before, ever since that I became a do-it yourself mechanic using RU-vid videos to help me figure everything out and fix my own car. I should of sued them, but I think the alternative route I took saved me much more money long term.

Hi Sir, you do really have the best than perfect approach to diagnosis to go direct to the issue with an impressive high quality repair verified with supportive Data on the scanner. keep up the good work eventually major success to you and your family. thank you

I just had the opportunity to watch this! Good job Oz! And great video!

This is so professional and educational... keep it up bro... you patient and well humbly informed.... thanks

Thanks for this video. My 2016 Rav4 threw this code. It is 80k and clean inside. It's been driving fine but besides the CEL the display would always show "D" with the shifter over in sport/manual mode. I decided to check this rather than dive into the sensor. Exactly the same thing. A few taps with a small screwdriver and it popped out. Thank you so much. This saved me so much time and frustration.

Awesome job man! Nollan and PJ are 2 great friends to have!!

OZ, that was AWESOME brother thanks for sharing.

Excellent work, saved the customer a lot of money 💸💰 👍

Nice Work! thanks for sharing!! Description and operation saves the day!

Lol at the outtakes at the end! Good video, great diag skills truly.

Very educational as usual. Thanks for the video.

Thank you brother! I've been going crazy with this stupid thing, the NSW was on all the time but I would have never looked at the pid if it wasn't for you

Bro you my friend saved me lot of money i really appreciated thanks for sharing this video.

Thanks man, you saved a life.

I get the same exact problem with my 4runner. About every other year I start getting that P0705 code. I just remove the center counsel & blow out the shifter box with compressed air. It's amazing how much dog fur & stuff get down in there.

GREAT JOB MAN!!! Keep these videos coming

I just got this code I’m going to try this method and get back to you. Grateful for the intel 🚗🙌🏼

Great diagnostic video.

Thank you very much for your very well explained video.

Awesome! Good interpretation of test don’t guess brother

I’ve replaced many Mercedes Electronic shifters when I worked at the dealer! Germans weren’t too wise, let’s install a cup holder right next to the shifter😂

Great work 👍

ThankS 🙏 OZ for helping me be a better tech and improving my income

Good work!

This video is a big help ty.

Wow you are fantastic at what you do!! OZ. What needs to be done to fix my 2011 Camry XLE 2.5. Transmission slips for a brief moment when shifting from first into second when cold.

My experience on a P0705 code on a fiat Punto 2004 petrol 1.2 16v CVT speedgear. I searched a lot for the cause, I disassembled and cleaned the speed range sensor but the code was still there. Finally a video on this breakdown on a toyota directed me to the taillights. I discovered an oxidation of the connector on the ground. I removed the oxidation and the fault disappeared.

Same problem with me i change the PRND switch but the check engine light still on and after watching this video i solved my problem thanks alot

Good job Man

Thankz man, love when other mechanics trouble shoot so I don't have too 😅.

Just excellent

Great video... great job.

You rock dude

I had this code on my Nissan Versa but it cleared out after a couple of days. My conclusion is that when I shifted into drive with the car still moving, it didn't allow the tcm to figure out what position the shifter was moved into. My tip, make sure you come to a complete stop before changing gears! Most transmission shops in my area "will not touch a Nissan vehicle with a 10 foot flagpole".

Just did this to my 2012 Highlander before doing anything else for a P0705 code and my CEL went away after cleaning the sport shift button. Thanks for the video.

Well done

Good video 👍

Good job

For others failing your fix - depending on the circuit design just clip or ground out the Sport wire.

Bro eres el mejor solucioné un problema igual a ese

great explanation, very useful!

Thank you...

Very nice ser

Thankyou

Nice work. NO PARTS REQUIRED!

Thanks

Awesome finding.

What do you call INTELLECTUAL AND PRODIGY and SUBSTANTIAL add one more KNOWLEDGEABLE the answer is Oz Mechanics My teacher Thanks for sharing it thank you very much Take care and have a great day Oz Mechanics From Nick Ayivor from London England UK 🇬🇧

Lol like the bloopers

Had the same problem with my 2012 lexus gx460. I sprayed it down with mass air flow sensor cleaner , did the trick , came back a year later did the same thing and topped it off with WD-40 seems to be working fine now

Can't thank you enough for making this video. I had the same exact problem on my 2019 4Runner. The sport mode switch had already reset itself but the code had been set and couldn't be cleared without a scanner. I took care of this problem with a purchase of a $35 scanner and didn't have to take it into the shop where I'm sure they would have charged me hundreds if not thousands.

The same thing happened on Airbus A350, several different pilots spilled their coffee on the center panel causing mid-air engine shutdowns

Hello, why sometimes it hard to pull gear stick from "P" to "R" and sometimes perfectly ?! maybe there is some kind combination before stoping the car in parking ?!

Hi I have same problem for corolla, what type of clear use to clean

What did you use to clean up the shifter box? You said electrical cleaner, but what what it?

I have a P0705 code and my shifter is very stiff. 2016 4Runner It started intermittently last winter and then went away all summer but now it’s back and won’t go back to normal. When I shift it in to Drive it’s stiff and doesn’t register the “D” on the dash. It registers park, Reverse and Neutral but not Drive and it also no longer registers tiptronic sports mode. Because it’s stiff do you think it’s the actual shifter and probably not the PRNDL sensor?

👍👍👍👍

I have the same issues except it's only with sport mode when shifting from sport back to drive it doesn't change it stays in sport till switched back in neutral then code pops up

👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Hi, great work. I am experiencing this with my Camry Hybrid 2008 code is p0705 transmission range sensor circuit. Kindly assist me

Does anyone know if this is the same or close to a 2008 Subaru Legacy?

Is it possible that cleaning the gear box/shift box (whatever it's called lol) would have solved the problem and the sensor didn't even need to be replaced?

I have a 2012 Avalon, replaced the NSW and now car won't go into park. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Had this issue on a 2018 Camry. It was at the dealer and they put a new range switch and it didn't fix the issue. Vehicle got towed to me and I took the center console out and I found that the shift light connector is wet. I cleaned it out with some crc electric cleaner and the car is back to normal. Toyota wanted to charge the lady $1700 for a new shifter with labor

Hi my car it toyota camry 2010 . When i use sport mode i just drive a little bit it automatic change to the D mode. And it show the P0705 error like the video too. I try change the sensor on the trainmission already. Do you know what problem is it. Thanks you for your help.

If it were stuck in sport mode all the time, I wonder how it still shifted normally? I would think the driver would need to manually shift the gear if it were in sport mode.

Oz.. I have a question that has nothing to do with this video, but based on you expertise I need you thoughts on a problem I have. I just replace the whole AC system on my 06 focus and I mean replace everything, but the problem I have is that the AC blows cold air while driving around, but when I hit a red light or just idle it blows warm air until I start moving again... is there anything I need to check or do to fix this issue?

As there anyway I can contact you

my car drives and shifts but backup lights and reverse camera don’t work replaced the part but issue wasn’t resolved and it was literally a 7.5amp fuse that was completely missing from the cabin put in a new one everything ok

Where are you located i have a 2013 camry and 2nd gear is acting up i have to let the gas and than press it again in order to go to 3nd gear

Another possibility: Water intrusion / corrosion / grounding issue in the backup bulb / tail lamp assemble wiring harness causing that code. Replace the two backup bulbs

I need help taking the shifter apart and cleaning it. Can you do a video cleaning the shifter?

Where don you get your schematics ?

Did anyone notice the yellow marker when sports mode was on and it stuck!

I have replaced my neutral switch n stick box n i still getting p0705
