Park Lock System Description
The park lock system prevents ignition lock cylinder movement to the LOCK position when the automatic transmission (A/T) shift lever is in any position other than Park. A cable is attached to the A/T shift lever and to the ignition switch cylinder case. Moving the A/T shift lever out of the Park position pulls the cable and prevents the cylinder from moving to the LOCK position. Moving the A/T shift lever to the PARK position pushes the cable and allows the cylinder to move to the LOCK position.
