AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SYSTEM(for 2GR-FSE) Kick Down Switch Circuit

DESCRIPTION

The kick down switch turns ON when the accelerator pedal is fully depressed to send a signal to the ECM.

When the kick down switch 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 signals and controls shifting at the normal shift points.
