AT Shift Lock Solenoid and "P" Range Switch: Inspection

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE FOR SYMPTOM

Step Check Yes No
1 CHECK SHIFT LOCK SOLENOID  .
Measure the resistance of shift lock solenoid connector terminals.
Terminals 
No. 4 - No. 3: 
Is the resistance between 19.8 - 24.2 Ω? Go to step . Replace the shift lock solenoid.
2 CHECK SHIFT LOCK SOLENOID  .
Connect the battery to shift lock solenoid connector terminal, and then operate the solenoid.
Terminals 
No.3 (+) - No.4 (-): 
Does the shift lock solenoid operate normally? Go to step . Replace the shift lock solenoid.
3 CHECK "P" RANGE SWITCH  .
  1. Move the select lever to "P" range.
  2. Measure the resistance between "P" range switch connector terminals.

    Terminals 

    No. 1 - No. 2: 

Is the resistance less than 1 Ω? Go to step . Replace the "P" range switch.
4 CHECK "P" RANGE SWITCH  .
  1. Set the select lever to a range other than the "P" range.
  2. Measure the resistance between "P" range switch connector terminals.

    Terminals 

    No. 1 - No. 2: 

Is the resistance more than 1 MΩ? Normal Replace the "P" range switch.
