Shift Interlock: Testing and Inspection






SHIFT INTERLOCK CABLE










The Interlock Cable is attached to a lever within the Shifter that prevents the Shift Lever from moving out of "Park" without the key (theft prevention). The Interlock Cable adjustment is preset at the factory. When properly adjusted, the Interlock System prevents the key being removed from the Key Cylinder when the Shift Lever is in a position other than "Park".
