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

Step Check Yes No
1 CHECK SOLENOID UNIT. 
Measure the resistance of solenoid unit connector terminals.
Terminals 
No. 4 - No. 3: 
Is the resistance 27.6 - 30.5 Ω? Go to step . Replace the solenoid unit. Refer to AT SHIFT LOCK SOLENOID AND "P" RANGE SWITCH .

3 CHECK "P" RANGE SWITCH. 
  1. Shift 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. Refer to AT SHIFT LOCK SOLENOID AND "P" RANGE SWITCH .
4 CHECK "P" RANGE SWITCH. 
  1. Shift the select lever to other than "P" range.
  2. Measure the resistance between "P" range switch connector terminals.

    Terminals
