CODE 83, REVERSE INHIBIT SOLENOID - M/T

PCM energizes reverse inhibit solenoid whenever ignition is on and vehicle speed is 4 MPH or less. Code will set if PCM detects the wrong voltage on the monitored circuit for more than 26 seconds; however, MIL will not be turned on.

Note. Test numbers refer to numbers on diagnostic chart.

  1. If VSS circuit fails, transmission can be shifted into Reverse. With ignition off, transmission should not shift into Reverse.
  2. Detects a partially shorted coil which could cause excessive current flow. When isolating circuits, leave circuit energized for at least 2 minutes to allow coils to warm.
  3. Raise vehicle enough to access reverse lockout solenoid electrical harness and still be able to turn ignition on.
