P705 code NB Miata

I have a manual transmission NB Miata.

If  gearbox oil is low, will it give the P705 code. Or is it only for a faulty Neutral position switch?

The automatic NB, from what I have read gives the code for a faulty senor or for low oil. 

You mean P0705, right? I'm basing this on a 2001 workshop manual.

DTC P0705

Transmission range (TR) switch circuit malfunction (short circuit)

DETECTION CONDITION

• Any of P, R, N, D, 2, or 1 positions/ranges switches are ON for 10 seconds or more.

• Diagnostic support note:

• This is a continuous monitor (CCM).

• MIL illuminates if TCM detects the above malfunction conditions during first drive cycle.

• PENDING CODE is not available.

• FREEZE FRAME DATA is available.

• O/D OFF indicator light does not flash.

• DTC is stored in TCM memory.

POSSIBLE CAUSE

• TR switch malfunction

• Short to power between TR switch terminal B and X-09 connector male terminal Q

• Short to power between TR switch terminal J and X-09 connector male terminal Q

• Short to power between TR switch terminal F and X-09 connector male terminal C

• Short to power between TR switch terminal H and X-09 connector male terminal R

• Short to power between TR switch terminal E and X-09 connector male terminal N

• Short to power between TR switch terminal G and X-09 connector male terminal I

• Short to power between X-09 connector female terminal Q and TCM terminal F

• Short to power between X-09 connector female terminal C and TCM terminal D

• Short to power between X-09 connector female terminal R and TCM terminal C

• Short to power between X-09 connector female terminal N and TCM terminal B

• Short to power between X-09 connector female terminal I and TCM terminal A

• Damaged connector between TR switch and TCM

• TCM malfunction

In reply to Keith Tanner :

WOW! that was a fast reply, and yes you are correct P0705

 

I am at work and had to type my first post quickly. Just wanted to clarify my horribly worded first post. It is a manual transmission that gave the P0705 code. I will update my post above to reflect that.

For manual transmission:

DTC P0705

Neutral switch input circuit malfunction

DETECTION CONDITION

• The PCM monitors changes in input voltage from the neutral switch. If PCM does not detected the PCM terminal 4H voltage does not change while vehicle speed above 30 km/h {18.6 mph} and clutch pedal depressed above 14 times, it determines that neutral switch circuit has malfunction.

• Diagnostic support note

• This is a continuous monitor (CCM).

• MIL illuminates if PCM detects the above malfunction condition in two consecutive drive cycles.

• PENDING CODE is available if PCM detects the above malfunction condition during first drive cycle.

• FREEZE FRAME DATA is available.

• DTC is stored in PCM memory.

POSSIBLE CAUSE

• Neutral switch malfunction

• Open harness between neutral switch terminal A and PCM connector 4H

• Short to power between neutral switch terminal A and PCM connector 4H

• Short to GND between neutral switch terminal A and PCM terminal 4H

• Open harness between neutral switch terminal B and GND

• Short to power between neutral switch terminal B and GND

• PCM malfunction

You have my sincerest gratitude!
