P2795: Gear Shift Direction Circuit High
Standardized SAE J2012 code · P27xx — Transmission
What does P2795 mean?
Voltage on the gear-shift direction line is above the expected window. Wiring faults of this kind typically come from chafing, water ingress at connector seals, or pin push-back — a wiggle test on the harness while the code is active often confirms the location.
The code tells you which monitor failed, not which part is broken. Test before replacing parts.
Symptoms
- Check engine or transmission warning light on
- Harsh, delayed, or missing shifts
- Possible limp mode (locked in one gear)
- Slipping or shuddering during gear changes
Common causes
- High Signal wire shorted to B+
- Medium Open sensor element
- Low Connector pins corroded - high contact resistance
