Shift Interlock: Testing and Inspection






INSPECTION








1. Column shift: INSPECT SHIFT LOCK CONTROL ECU
Using a voltmeter, measure the voltage at each terminal.

HINT: Do not disconnect the ECU connector.








2. Floor shift: INSPECT SHIFT LOCK CONTROL ECU
Using a voltmeter, measure the voltage at each terminal.

HINT: Do not disconnect the ECU connector.

3. INSPECT SHIFT LOCK SOLENOID
a. Disconnect the solenoid connector.








b. Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance at each terminal.
Standard resistance: 20 - 28 Ohms
If resistance value is not as specified, replace the solenoid.








c. Apply battery positive voltage at each terminal. At this time, check that the solenoid operates. If the solenoid does not operate, replace the solenoid.
4. INSPECT KEY INTERLOCK SOLENOID
a. Disconnect the solenoid connector.





b. Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between terminals 3 and 4.
Standard resistance: 12 - 17 Ohms
If resistance value is not as specified, replace the solenoid.





c. Touch the solenoid with your finger and check that solenoid operation can be felt when battery positive voltage is applied intermittently to the terminals 1 and 2. If the solenoid does not operate, replace the solenoid.
5. INSPECT SHIFT LOCK CONTROL SWITCH








Inspect that there is continuity between each terminal.





*1: Floor shift release button is not pushed or column shift lever is not pulled.
*2: Floor shift release button is pushed or column shift lever is not pulled toward you.
If the continuity is not as specified, replace the switch.
