Sorry, I do not know what the code(s) were. I was just told by the person that ran the codes and I explained the problem to that I needed the shift position sensor. If you like I have explained the situation below:

I got into my car with no previous problems. I started the car placed it in reverse and backed out of my parking space. Placed the shifter into 'Drive' and the car still wanted to back up. I played with the shifter back and forth for a short while and then turned the key off. I then turned the key back to start and absolutely no response. It was as if the battery was completely down or the security system was triggered. Note: the dash display still showed the transmission to be in reverse.
