Park/Neutral Position Switch
NOTE:
Park/Neutral Position (PNP) switch may also be referred to as transaxle range switch or neutral safety switch. Adjust switch so engine starts with transmission in Park or Neutral only.
NOTE:
While adjusting transaxle range switch, always rotate switch towards engine to achieve continuity. A DTC P0706 could result if this procedure is not followed. A DVOM with audible continuity test is preferred. Do not stick probe in transaxle range switch terminal hole, use male terminals on transaxle range switch or faulty readings could occur.
- Remove air cleaner and duct assembly. See AIR CLEANER & DUCT ASSEMBLY under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION.
- Place transaxle in "D" (Drive). Use DVOM to check for continuity across terminals on transaxle range switch. See Fig 1 . Rotate transaxle range switch from left fender towards engine until continuity is achieved.
- Tighten switch-to-case bolts to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS . After switch-to-case bolts have been tightened, check continuity.
- Connect transaxle range switch harness connectors. Install air cleaner and duct assembly. See AIR CLEANER & DUCT ASSEMBLY under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION.
- Using scan tool, make sure each gear position reads correctly while manually moving through all gears.
