System Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Nissan Versa. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The TCM receives A/T indicator signals from the park/neutral position (PNP) switch (R-range, D-range, 2-range and 1-range) and the combination meter (P-range and N-range). The TCM then sends A/T position indicator signals to the combination meter via CAN communication lines. The combination meter indicates the received shift position.
