What P0927 means
- The fault code indicates a high voltage condition in the gear shift reverse actuator circuit. The gear shift reverse actuator is responsible for controlling the reverse shifting of gears in the transmission. A high voltage condition suggests that the circuit is receiving a voltage level higher than the expected range for proper operation.
Possible symptoms
- Difficulty shifting into reverse gear
- Inability to engage the reverse gear
- Harsh or delayed shifts in the reverse direction
- Illumination of the Check Engine Light
- Impaired drivability and reduced vehicle performance
Possible causes
- Faulty or malfunctioning gear shift reverse actuator
- Shorted wiring in the gear shift reverse actuator circuit
- Poor electrical connections or loose connectors in the circuit
- Faulty transmission control module (TCM)
- High voltage supply to the circuit
Related parts
- Gear Shift Position Sensor: Gear Shift Position Sensor communicates the position of the gear to the car computer. This car's sensor has a problem which may cause difficulty in shifting gears
Possible solutions
- Inspect and test the gear shift reverse actuator for proper operation, and replace if necessary
- Check the wiring harness and connectors in the gear shift reverse actuator circuit for any signs of damage, and repair or replace as needed
- Ensure proper electrical connections are made and secure any loose connectors in the circuit
- Test the transmission control module (TCM) for any faults and replace if required
- Verify the voltage supply to the circuit and ensure it is within the specified range
