Shift Lock Solenoid (Column Shift): Installation
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
- Firmly install the shift lock solenoid onto the steering column jacket and the cable shift cam assembly. Connect the shift lock solenoid harness connector.
- Adjust the shift lock solenoid (with the shift lever clevis in the Neutral position) as follows:
- Pull out the tab (1) on the adjuster block side (2) of the shift lock solenoid. See Figure.
- Press on the adjuster block (2) to compress the internal adjuster spring which disengages the adjuster teeth. Slide the adjuster block (2) as far away from the solenoid as possible. See Figure.
- Lock the adjuster block (2) in place by pushing in on the tab (1). See Figure.
- Inspect the shift lock solenoid for the following operation:
- The shift lock solenoid must lock the shift lever clevis when the shift lever clevis is placed in the Park position.
- Turn the ignition switch to the ON position and depress the brake pedal to move the gearshift lever out of the Park position. The actuator should energize. See Figure. Readjust the shift lock solenoid, if needed.
- Install the steering column trim covers. Enable the SIR system. See appropriate AIR BAG DEACTIVATION PROCEDURES article in GENERAL INFORMATION.
