Park/Neutral Switch: Testing
- With transaxle linkage properly adjusted, switch should allow starter operation in "P" and "N" only. To test switch, remove wire connector and test for continuity between switch center pin and transaxle case. Continuity should exist only when transaxle is in "P" or "N".
- Check for continuity between 2 outer pins. Continuity should exist with transaxle in "R" position only. There should be no continuity between either outside pin and the transaxle case.
- To replace neutral safety switch, remove switch from case and allow fluid to drain. Move selector lever to "P" and "N" positions and ensure switch operating fingers are centered in switch opening. Install NEW switch and seal. Retest switch for continuity and add transaxle fluid as required.
