FUNCTION OF MAIN COMPONENTS
| Component | Function | |
|---|---|---|
| Shift Lock Solenoid Assembly | Shift Lock Control ECU | Controls the shift lock solenoid based on signals from each switch. |
| Shift Lock Solenoid | Locks the shift lever in P. | |
| P Detection Switch | Detects when the shift lever is in P. | |
| Shift Lock Release Button | Manually overrides the shift lock mechanism. | |
| Stop Light Switch Assembly | Detects when the brake pedal is depressed. | |
| Certification ECU (Smart Key ECU Assembly) | Sends the power switch signal to the shift lock control ECU. | |
| Hybrid Vehicle Control ECU | Sends the stop light switch signal to the shift lock control ECU. | |
SYSTEM CONTROL
The shift lock control ECU uses the P detection switch to detect the shift lever position, and receives input signals from the stop light switch assembly and power switch (push start switch). Upon receiving these signals, the shift lock control ECU turns on the shift lock solenoid in order to release the shift lock.
FUNCTION
The shift lock system prevents the shift lever from being moved to any position other than P, unless the power switch is turned on (IG) or on (READY), the brake pedal is depressed and the shift knob button is operated. This prevents unintentional moving.
