WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2020 Ford F-150. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Vehicles are equipped with either a column shift selector lever or a floor shift selector lever.

The transmission selector lever linkage consists of:

  • a selector lever cable that connects the transmission manual control lever to the selector lever assembly.
  • a brake shift interlock actuator that is integral to the selector lever assembly.
  • a SelectShift™ switch mounted to the selector lever that allows the driver to manually shift the transmission.
  • a TCS mounted to the selector lever that toggles the TOW/HAUL feature and, for column shift vehicles, the SPORT mode feature.

Raptor has the TCS as part of the Terrain Management System. Refer to: Four-Wheel Drive Systems - Raptor - System Operation and Component Description .

The selector lever assembly:

  • locks the transmission selector lever in the P position when the ignition switch is in the LOCK position.
  • requires the transmission selector lever to be in the P position to turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position.

The steering wheel:

  • has SelectShift™ paddle switches mounted to it that allow the driver to manually shift the transmission (if equipped).
