DESCRIPTION
The kick down switch assembly turns ON when the accelerator pedal is fully depressed to send a signal to the ECM.
When the kick down switch assembly is ON, the ECM controls gear shifting according to programmed shift diagrams.
If a short circuit develops in the kick down switch assembly, the ECM disregards the kick down switch assembly signals and performs shifts at the normal shift points.
