SHIFT INTERLOCK SOLENOID
Gearshift lever cannot be moved from Park position without simultaneously applying brake pedal with ignition switch turned to ON position. When brake pedal is applied, stoplamp switch interrupts circuit to A/T shift lock actuator, de-energizing A/T shift lock actuator, which unlocks gearshift lever from Park position. See WIRING DIAGRAMS .
Intermittents
Intermittent faulty electrical connections or wiring may be the cause of intermittent conditions. Check for loose, bent or corroded terminals and terminal tension. Check for cut, bare or pinched wiring. Simulate the condition that is potentially causing the intermittent connection, either by wiggling the connections or the wiring, test driving or performing other operations while observing scan tool, DVOM or other testing equipment. See WIRING DIAGRAMS .
STOPLAMP SWITCH
| CAUTION | Proper stoplamp switch adjustment is essential. Improper stoplamp switch adjustment may cause brake drag, heat buildup and excessive brake lining wear. |
Note. Adjust the stoplamp switch and cruise control release at the same time. The adjustment procedures for the stoplamp switch and the cruise control release switch are identical.
- Insert the stoplamp switch (3) into the retainer (2) until the switch body is seated on the retainer. (Scheme 127)
- Pull the brake pedal (4) upward against the internal pedal stop. (Scheme 128)
- Turn the switch (3) 90 degrees clockwise in order to lock the switch into position and adjust.
