    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      3 - 5 Always 10 kΩ or higher
      3 - 5 Always Below 1 Ω
      Apply battery voltage between terminals 1 and 2
    3. Install the ST relay.

    NG → REPLACE ST RELAY ASSEMBLY 

    OK: Go to next step 

  5. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (ST RELAY - BODY GROUND) 
    1. Remove the ST relay from the engine room relay block.

    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      ST relay terminal 2 - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
    3. Install the ST relay.

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    OK: Go to next step 

  6. INSPECT PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH ASSEMBLY 
    1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below when the shift lever is moved to each position.

      Standard resistance

      Tester Connection Shift Position Specified Condition
      1 - 3 and 4 - 9 P Below 1 Ω
      Except P 10 kΩ or higher
      1 - 2 R Below 1 Ω
      Except R 10 kΩ or higher
      1 - 8 and 4 - 9 N Below 1 Ω
      Except N 10 kΩ or higher
      1 - 7 D, S, "+" and "-" Below 1 Ω
      Except D, S, "+" and "-" 10 kΩ or higher

    NG → See step   10 

    OK: Go to next step 

  7. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR
