  4. Remove the transmission range switch (B).
  5. Make sure the selector control shaft is in the N position. If necessary, move the shift lever from P to N.
    NOTE: Do not use the selector control shaft to adjust the shift position. If the selector control shaft tips are squeezed together it will cause a faulty signal or position due to play between the selector control shaft and the transmission range switch.

  13. Check that the back-up lights come on when the shift lever is in R.
  14. Raise the vehicle on a lift, or apply the parking brake, block the rear wheels, and raise the front of the vehicle. Make sure it is securely supported.
  15. Allow the front wheels to rotate freely, then start the engine, and check the shift lever operation.
