P2847Shift Fork C Position Sensor Incorrect Neutral Position Indicated

This code means the transmission control module (TCM) has detected that the position sensor for shift fork C is reporting a neutral position when the transmission is actually in gear, or vice versa. The TCM compares the fork's actual position against the commanded gear and flags an error when the sensor signal does not match the expected neutral window.
