Reverse Lockout

Reverse lockout system (consisting of a lockout solenoid which operates a reverse lockout mechanism) is controlled by the PCM. System is used to prevent driver from shifting into reverse at speeds greater than 3 MPH. When ignition is on, power is supplied to the reverse lockout solenoid. At speeds greater than 3 MPH, PCM sends a ground signal to energize the reverse lockout solenoid. Reverse lockout system mechanically prevents shift lever from going into reverse position.
