Adjustment of A/T Position

ECS00ELL

1.

Loosen nut of control cable.

2.

Place the manual lever and selector lever in “P” position.

3.

Push the control cable in the direction shown with a force of 9.8
N (1kg, 2.2 lb), and release it. This is in the natural state, tighten
control cable nut to specifications.

Checking of A/T Position

ECS00ELM

With the selector lever in the “P” position, turn the ignition switch to the ON position with the engine OFF.
Confirm that the following conditions apply.

●

The selector lever can be shifted from the “P” position only when the brake pedal is depressed.

●

The selector lever stops at each position with the feel of engagement when it is moved through all the
positions.

●

There is no excessive effort, sticking, noise or rattle.

●

The actual position of the selector lever matches the position shown by the shift position indicator and the
A/T body.

●

The back-up lamps illuminate only when the selector lever is placed in the “R” position.

●

The back-up lamps do not illuminate when the selector lever is pushed against the “R” position when in
the “P” or “N” position. 

●

The engine can only be started with the selector lever in the “P” and “N” positions.

●

The A/T is locked completely when in the “P” position.

A/T SHIFT LOCK SYSTEM

PFP:34950

Description

ECS00ELN

●

The mechanical key interlock mechanism also operates as a shift lock:
With the ignition switch turned to ON, the selector lever cannot be shifted from “P” (parking) to any other
position unless the brake pedal is depressed.
With the key removed, the selector lever cannot be shifted from “P” to any other position.
The key cannot be removed unless the selector lever is placed in “P” position.

●

The shift lock and key interlock mechanisms are controlled by the ON-OFF operation of the shift lock sole-
noid and by the operation of the rotator and slider located inside the key cylinder, respectively.
