P0806
Clutch Position Sensor A Circuit Range/Performance

What it means
Clutch position sensor A is electrically intact, but its readings drift away from the model — for example the position does not move when the actuator is commanded, or the offset shifts after a thermal cycle. Often a misadjusted sensor mount.
