B1750 is a manufacturer-specific code. The same code string on a different make may have a different meaning. Always confirm the code's definition against the vehicle's service information for the specific make and model under test.

DTC B1750 is set when the BCM detects an open circuit on the PNP switch input, meaning the signal path between the switch and the module shows no continuity in any selector position. The PNP switch is typically a multi tap rotary switch on the transmission case or shifter assembly that should provide a defined value to the BCM for each gear, so an open circuit results in the module seeing no ...
