July 1: So it begins. Don't worry, this is not in the correct legal jurisdiction!

Detection Condition

The PCM monitors changes in input voltage from the neutral switch. If PCM does not detect voltage changes at PCM 104-pin harness connector terminal No. 64 when gears are shifted more than 14 times and vehicle speed is more than 18.6 MPH, PCM determines that neutral switch circuit has a malfunction. This is a Continuous Monitor (CM). MIL illuminates if PCM detects malfunction condition in 2 consecutive drive cycles. PENDING CODE is available if PCM detects malfunction condition during first drive cycle. FREEZE FRAME DATA is available and DTC is stored in PCM memory.
