External Controls

EXTERNAL CONTROLS
The transaxle external controls system consists of the following components:
^ Selector lever cable and bracket
^ Park range switch (part of the gearshift lever)
^ Shift lock actuator
^ Selector lever
The selector lever controls the transaxle gear selection through the selector lever cable. The cable detent and selector lever position locking is controlled by the selector lever knob.

Shift Interlock System
The shift interlock system prevents the selector lever from being moved out of PARK (P) position. The ignition switch must be in the ON position and the brake pedal depressed to move the selector lever out of the PARK position. The brake pedal position is detected by the brake pedal position (BPP) switch.

The manual override button will mechanically bypass the electronic portion of the shift interlock system and allow the selector lever to be moved out of PARK position. The manual override button is part of the gearshift lever assembly.

To override the brake shift interlock, remove the tethered cap on the gearshift bezel with a small screwdriver. With the brake pedal pressed, insert a small screwdriver into the access hole, press down and pull the selector lever out of PARK.
