[ELECTRIC SHIFT]

COMPONENT PARTS

SIGNAL PATH

• The electric shift control module transmits an electric shift warning lamp signal to the controller of VCM

when detecting a malfunction in the electric shift system.

• VCM transmits that signal to combination meter.

• The combination meter indicates the each message when receiving an electric shift warning message sig-

nal.

SYSTEM DIAGRAM

SIGNAL PATH

• The electric shift control module judges the shift position by the information from electric shift selector. Then

electric shift control module transmits shift position signal to VCM.

• VCM transmits that signal to combination meter.

• The combination meter indicates the current shift position when receiving shift position signal.

WARNING/INDICATOR OPERATIONG CONDITION

Power switch: ON

WARNING/INDICATOR CANCEL CONDITION

Power switch: OFF

Shift Position Warning Buzzer

INFOID:0000000010119553

PURPOSE

The shift position warning buzzer warns the driver that the sift position does not change to the selected posi-

tion.

SYSTEM DIAGRAM

SIGNAL PATH

• Electric shift control module and VCM judge that the shift position can be switched according to a signal

transmitted from the electric control shift selector.

• When electric shift control module and VCM judge that the shift position cannot be switched, electric shift

control module transmits a shift refuse buzzer signal to the combination meter.

• When receiving a  shift refuse buzzer signal, the combination meter activates the shift position warning

buzzer.

PARKING MECHANISM

• The parking mechanism consists of the manual shaft, manual plate, detent spring, parking rod, parking pawl

and parking gear, and it is locked/unlocked by the operation of the parking actuator.

• If the parking actuator is operated by the signal from the electric shift control module, the manual shaft and

manual plate that is mechanically connected to the parking actuator rotates sliding the parking rod. The slid-

ing parking rod pushes up the parking pawl, which engages with the parking gear locking the parking mech-

anism.
