SHIFT-LOCK SYSTEM
id051800140300
Purpose, Function
• The shift-lock system operates when the ignition is switched to ON and the brake pedal is not depressed, and inhibits the selector lever from being shifted from the P position to other positions.
• If the shift-lock cannot be released by the normal operation, it can be released manually by inserting a flathead screwdriver into the shift-lock release hole (emergency manual shift-lock release system).
-
Note
-
There are two types of automatic transaxle shift mechanisms.
• Type A: Gate-shaped key type. There is no lock release button on the selector lever knob.
• Type B: Gate-shaped straight type. There is a lock release button on the selector lever knob.

Operation (Type A)
Shift-lock Release Conditions
-
• The shift-lock is released when all of the following conditions are met (except emergency manual shift-lock release system is operated).
-
― Selector lever is in P position
― Ignition is switched to ON
― Brake pedal is depressed (brake light switch is on)
Shift-lock operation conditions (shift-lock release conditions not satisfied)
-
• When the shift-lock release conditions are not met, the shift-lock operates.
• Because there is no energization to the shift-lock solenoid at this time, the shift-lock solenoid is not energized.
• As a result, the lock slider is positioned where it restricts the selector lever movement and the selector lever cannot be moved to any position other than P.

Shift-lock release (Shift-lock release conditions are satisfied)
-
• When the shift-lock release conditions are met, the shift-lock does not operate.
• At this time, the shift-lock solenoid is energized because there is energization to the shift-lock solenoid.
• As a result, the selector lever can be moved to any position other than P by moving the lock slider to a position where it does not restrict the selector lever movement.

Emergency manual shift-lock release system operation
-
• The emergency manual shift-lock release system can be released manually even if the shift-lock release conditions are not met.
• The lock slider restriction can be cancelled forcibly by pressing the shift-lock override button using a flathead screwdriver.
• As a result, the selector lever can be moved to any position other than P.
