freekraz Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Hello all, Got an engine light on my 2001 Legacy, base sedan 2.5 liter engine, 5 speed AWD. The code reader says, P1101 MOD $E1. Any suggestions as to what it is telling me? I erased the code and the check engine light hasn't gone back on. Thanks in advance, Jeff in Boston Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairtax4me Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 (edited) P1101: Nuetral switch circuit This is the neutral position switch on the side of the trans. It just tells the ECU when the trans is in gear or in neutral. The Neutral position switch is the rear-most switch on the drivers side of the trans. It can stick intermittently, or the contacts can get dirty and not send the proper signal to the ECU. The switch wiring runs along the left side of the trans and cross over the top and is attached on top of the bellhousing on the passenger side near the other large wire connectors. Check there for any dirt in the connector, and you can check continuity on the switch from there while moving the shifter. If you get no continuity or no change in continuity, replace the switch.
