INSPECT SHIFT LEVER POSITION SENSOR POSITION
Apply the parking brake.
Lock the wheels with chocks to secure the vehicle.
Turn the power switch on (READY).
Move the shift lever to D and release the brake.
Note
Be sure to apply the parking brake and lock the wheels with chocks to secure the vehicle.
Slowly move the shift lever to N and measure moving distance (A) of the shift lever from the original point to the gear activation point.
Note
Be sure to move the shift lever slowly.
Move the shift lever to R and release the brake.
Note
Be sure to apply the parking brake and lock the wheels with chocks to secure the vehicle.
Slowly move the shift lever to N and measure moving distance (B) of the shift lever from the original point to the vehicle activation point.
Note
Be sure to move the shift lever slowly.
| *1 | Gear Activation Point |
| *2 | N Position |
| *3 | R Position |
| *4 | D Position |
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.
ADJUST SHIFT LEVER POSITION SENSOR POSITION
If moving distance (A) is shorter than (B)*1:
| *1 | Gear Activation Point |
| *2 | N Position |
| *3 | R Position |
| *4 | D Position |
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 activation point becomes longer.
Move the shift lever to N.
Loosen the 2 bolts.
Slightly turn the shift lever position sensor counterclockwise.
Tighten the 2 bolts in the order shown in the illustration.
Recheck the shift lever position.
If moving distance (B) is shorter than (A)*2:
| *1 | Gear Activation Point |
| *2 | N Position |
| *3 | R Position |
| *4 | D Position |
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 activation point becomes longer.
Move the shift lever to N.
Loosen the 2 bolts.
Slightly turn the shift lever position sensor clockwise.
Tighten the 2 bolts in the order shown in the illustration.
Recheck the shift lever position.
