Shift Lock System
The shift lock system prevents the shift lever from moving unless certain conditions are met. The shift lock solenoid is normally OFF. After starting the engine in P, the shift lock stop prevents the shift lever from moving to any other position from P. When the brake pedal is pressed and the accelerator pedal is not pressed, the PCM commands the shift lock solenoid ON; the shift lock solenoid plunger in the shift lock solenoid pulls the shift lock stop to release the lock pin. Pressing the shift lever button allows the shift lever to move to any other position. When the brake pedal and the accelerator pedal are pressed at the same time, the PCM does not command the shift lock solenoid ON and the shift lock system remains locked.
