P07BD: Parking-lock input B has its own frequency or mismatch classification
Learn how Ford’s TR9070 P07BD differs from B pulse-width high/low faults and from parking-lock consistency.

Documented application
Ford 2024–2025 gasoline OBD summary, TR9070 DCT parking-lock position sensor input B. Numeric frequency boundaries and individual vehicle applicability are not supplied.
The code alone does not identify a failed part or establish that a vehicle is safe to drive. Confirm the vehicle, reporting module and applicable service procedure.
P07BD is the TR9070 parking-lock sensor input B result in Ford's frequency-out-of-range or input-mismatch row. That is more specific than the generic intermittent/erratic description, and it identifies B rather than the separate A input.
Do not replace timing evidence with a level check
Ford lists B pulse-width high or stuck-at-one separately as P07BA, and low or stuck-at-zero as P07B9. P07B5 occupies a separate consistency row. A plausible high/low level cannot alone establish that the B pulse frequency and input relationship satisfy the controller.
The table does not state the numerical frequency boundary for this parking-lock input. A frequency limit from a transmission range sensor elsewhere in the summary is not an evidenced substitute.
Keep the signal result separate from mechanical engagement
A useful record preserves the exact code, B-input status and companion A information available from the module. A displayed parking state does not verify every sensor timing check. Equally, the sensor code alone cannot prove that the parking lock is mechanically engaged or disengaged.
Use the applicable parking-lock diagnostic procedure with suitable vehicle restraint. The source provides no universal connector test or authorization to bypass the mechanism. The next investigation must resolve the documented B signal category while retaining distinct pulse-level, consistency and mechanical-state evidence.
