Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview






TX6A AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION / TRANSAXLE: PARK / NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH: ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION; 2013 MY FR-S [03/2012 -]

1. INSPECT PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH ASSEMBLY

(a) Apply the parking brake and turn the ignition switch to ON.

(b) Depress the brake pedal and check that the engine starts when the shift lever is in N or P, but does not start when the shift lever is in other positions.

(c) Check that the back-up light illuminates and the reverse warning buzzer sounds only when the shift lever is in R.

If a malfunction failure is found, check the park/neutral position switch assembly for continuity.
