Operation

Position other than Park (key interlock operates)

• The key interlock solenoid is energized when the selector lever is any position other than the P position. When the key interlock solenoid is energized, the solenoid slider prevents the ignition switch rotor from rotating. Due to this, the key cannot be turned to the LOCK position.

Park position (key interlock does not operate)

• The key interlock solenoid is not energized when the selector lever is in the P position. The key interlock solenoid slider is pulled by the return spring, releasing the rotor in the ignition switch. Due to this, the key can be turned to the LOCK position.
