ON-VEHICLE REPAIRS
Note. Various components may be serviced without transmission removal, depending on application. For servicing of these components, see appropriate component under ADJUSTMENTS and/or REMOVAL & INSTALLATION . For additional information on testing electrical components, see appropriate DIAGNOSIS article.
PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH
Note. Apply the Park brake. The engine must start in the Park (P) or Neutral (N) positions only. Check the Park/Neutral Position (PNP) switch for proper operation.
- Place the transmission shifter in the Neutral (N) position.
- With an assistant in the drivers seat, raise and suitably support the vehicle.
- Loosen the PNP switch bolts.
- With the vehicle in the Neutral (N) position, rotate the switch while the assistant attempts to start the engine.
- Following a successful start, turn the engine OFF.
- Tighten the PNP switch bolts to specification. See «TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS»(ref-161097-S40851412382004031700000) .
- Lower the vehicle.
- Check the PNP switch for proper operation. The engine must start in the Park (P) or Neutral (N) positions only.
- Replace the PNP switch if proper operation can not be achieved. See «PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH»(ref-161097-S39957350382004031700000) .
SHIFT CABLE
- Ensure the steering column shift lever and the transmission manual shaft lever are in the Park (P) position.
- Raise and suitably support the vehicle.
- Pull back the white plastic cover (1) on the center connector. (Scheme 78) Pull up on the center tabs of the lock button (2). NOTE: This step must be performed correctly to avoid a misadjusted cable. DO NOT grasp the shift cable end (2) during this procedure.
- Push the natural colored lock button (2) down to engage the locking teeth on the shift cable end (1). (Scheme 79)
- Release the white cover (1). (Scheme 80) Verify the white cover (1) conceals the natural colored lock (2). If the white cover (1) does not conceal the natural colored lock (2), the shift cable must be readjusted. Test the transmission for proper shift operation. If all of the gear positions cannot be achieved, the shift cable must be readjusted.
