Condition
Some customers may comment on seeing an intermittent Shift to Park message when the
vehicle has been shifted into Park, and the ignition has been turned to the Off position.
Aside from seeing the message, technicians may find DTC B000A set.
Cause
The cause of the condition may be that the park switch in the transmission control
(shifter) assembly is not pulling the BCM signal low to electronically show that the vehicle
is in the Park position.
Correction
Verify the condition and follow the steps in the Service Procedure below. R & R the
transmission control, install a new shifter harness, then upon reinstalling the transmission
control, install an In-line Shifter Wire Harness Jumper between the shifter base connector
and the console harness connector.
