| P0851-579 | Park / Neutral Switch Input Circuit Low |
| P0852-580 | Park / Neutral Switch Input Circuit High |
DESCRIPTION
Instead of having a parking position as one of the positions of the conventional shift lever, a P position switch (transmission shift main switch) is provided independently above the shift lever. The switch is a momentary type, in which the button does not lock mechanically.
The P position switch (transmission shift main switch) contains resistors R1 and R2. When the P position switch (transmission shift main switch) is not pressed, the switch provides a combined resistance of R1 and R2; and when the P position switch (transmission shift main switch) is pressed, the switch provides only the resistance of R1. The voltage at the P1 terminal of the power management control ECU varies with the changes in the resistance of the switch. The power management control ECU determines the P position switch (transmission shift main switch) operation according to this resistance signal.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
PROCEDURE
INSPECT P POSITION SWITCH (TRANSMISSION SHIFT MAIN SWITCH)
Disconnect the b1 P position switch (transmission shift main switch) connector.
| *a | Component without harness connected (P Position Switch (Transmission Shift Main Switch)) |
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
| Standard Resistance | |||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Tech Tips
Terminals No. 1 and No. 8 on the component side connector are empty.
Reconnect the b1 P position switch (transmission shift main switch) connector.
| NG |
|
REPLACE P POSITION SWITCH (TRANSMISSION SHIFT MAIN SWITCH) |
| OK |
|
CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (POWER MANAGEMENT CONTROL ECU - P POSITION SWITCH (TRANSMISSION SHIFT MAIN SWITCH))
Disconnect the L5 power management control ECU connector.
Disconnect the b1 P position switch (transmission shift main switch) connector.
| *a | Rear view of wire harness connector (to Power Management Control ECU) |
| *b | Front view of wire harness connector (to P Position Switch (Transmission Shift Main Switch)) |
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
| Standard Resistance (Check for Open) | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
