SHIFT LEVER POSITION SENSOR ADJUSTMENT

Info Added 2017-08-02

PROCEDURE


  1. INSPECT SHIFT LEVER POSITION SENSOR POSITION


    1. Apply the parking brake.

    2. Chock all 4 wheels to secure the vehicle.

    3. Turn the power switch on (READY).

    4. Move the shift lever to D and release the brake.

      Note

      Be sure to apply the parking brake and chock all 4 wheels to secure the vehicle.

      *b N Position
      *c R Position
      *d D Position

      Slowly move the shift lever to N and measure moving distance (A) of the shift lever from the original point to the gear disengagement point.

      Note

      Be sure to move the shift lever slowly.

    6. Move the shift lever to R and release the brake.

      Note

      Be sure to apply the parking brake and chock all 4 wheels to secure the vehicle.

    7. Slowly move the shift lever to N and measure moving distance (B) of the shift lever from the original point to the vehicle disengagement point.

      Note

      Be sure to move the shift lever slowly.

    8. Check that moving distances (A) and (B) shown in the illustration are almost the same.

      Tech Tips


      • If moving distances (A) and (B) are almost the same, adjustment of the shift lever position is not necessary.

      • If moving distance (A) is shorter than (B), perform adjustment of the shift lever position [*1].

      • If moving distance (B) is shorter than (A), perform adjustment of the shift lever position [*2].

  2. ADJUST SHIFT LEVER POSITION SENSOR POSITION


    1. If moving distance (A) is shorter than (B). [*1]

      Tech Tips

      If the shift lever is moved from R to N, the moving distance of the shift lever from the original point to the gear disengagement point becomes longer.


      1. Move the shift lever to N.

      2. B001VHR

        Loosen the 2 bolts.

      3. B001VJW

        Slightly turn the shift lever position sensor clockwise.

      4. B001VHRE04

        Tighten the 2 bolts in the order shown in the illustration.

        Torque:
        13 N*m  { 133 kgf*cm, 10 ft.*lbf }

      5. Recheck the shift lever position sensor.

    2. If moving distance (B) is shorter than (A). [*2]

      Tech Tips

      If the shift lever is moved from D to N, the moving distance of the shift lever from the original point to the gear disengagement point becomes longer.


      1. Move the shift lever to N.

      2. B001VHR

        Loosen the 2 bolts.

      3. B001VFQ

        Slightly turn the shift lever position sensor counterclockwise.

      4. B001VHRE04

        Tighten the 2 bolts in the order shown in the illustration.

        Torque:
        13 N*m  { 133 kgf*cm, 10 ft.*lbf }

      5. Recheck the shift lever position sensor.
