P2E16Intermediate Shaft Selection Actuator Position Sensor Range/Performance

P2E16 indicates that the powertrain control module (PCM) has detected an out-of-range or erratic signal from the intermediate shaft selection actuator position sensor, which monitors the position of the intermediate shaft selection mechanism in the transmission or transfer case. The PCM compares the sensor voltage against expected values for the commanded gear or mode and sets this code when the signal falls outside the valid range or fails a rationality check.
