Inspection and Verification
- Verify the customer concern by operating the system.
- Visually inspect for obvious signs of mechanical or electrical damage.
- If an obvious cause for an observed or reported concern is found, correct the cause before proceeding to the next step.
- If the concern is not visually evident, verify the symptom. Go to «Symptom Chart - External Controls»(ref-293484-S30178653422008080700000) or Go to «Symptom Chart - Noise, Vibration and Harshness (NVH)»(ref-293484-S42003753992008080700000) .

| Condition | Possible Sources | Action |
| Shift interlock system does not release/lock correctly | Circuitry open/shorted Fuse(s) Stoplight switch | Go to Pinpoint Test A . |
| Shift interlock system does not release/lock correctly | Shift lock actuator | INSTALL a new selector lever assembly. REFER to Selector Lever . |
| Transmission range (TR) sensor | DIAGNOSE and REPAIR all TR sensor DTCs. REFER to AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE/TRANSMISSION - 6F50 article. |
| Transmission control (TC) switch does not operate correctly | Instrument cluster Circuitry open/shorted PCM TC switch | Go to Pinpoint Test B . |
| Selector lever linkage is out of correct gear relationship | Selector lever linkage out of adjustment | REFER to Selector Lever Cable Adjustment . |
| Loose selector lever cable bracket | CHECK the selector lever cable bracket. TIGHTEN as necessary. |

Symptom Chart - Noise, Vibration and Harshness (NVH)
Note. Noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) symptoms should be identified using the diagnostic tools that are available. For a list of these tools, an explanation of their uses and a glossary of common terms, refer to NOISE, VIBRATION AND HARSHNESS article. Since it is possible any one of multiple systems may be the cause of a symptom, it may be necessary to use a process of elimination type of diagnostic approach to pinpoint the responsible system. If this is not the causal system for the symptom, refer back to NOISE, VIBRATION AND HARSHNESS article for the next likely system and continue diagnosis
| Condition | Possible Sources | Action |
| Vibration - a high frequency (20-80 Hz) that is felt through the seat or gear shifter. Changes with engine speed | Shift cable incorrectly routed, grounded out or loose | CHECK the shift cable. REPAIR as necessary. |
