Normal Operation and Fault Conditions

The key removal inhibit solenoid (part of the ignition switch) receives battery voltage from BCM (Body Control Module) fuse 28 (15A). When the selector lever is moved out of the PARK position, the park range switch (part of the selector lever) closes, providing a ground circuit to the key removal inhibit solenoid. The key removal inhibit solenoid activates and prevents the ignition lock cylinder from being turned to the OFF position and the key from being removed.
