Transmission Range Switch Test

1. Remove the transmission range switch harness connector (A) from the connector bracket (B), then disconnect the connector.

2. Check for continuity between terminals at the harness connector. There should be continuity between the terminals in the following table for each switch position.
3. Transmission range switch test has finished the test results are OK.
If there is no continuity between any terminals, go to step 4.

4. Remove the transmission range switch cover.

5. Disconnect the transmission range switch connector.

6. Check for continuity between terminals at the switch connector. There should be continuity between the terminals in the following table for each switch position.
7. If the transmission range switch continuity check is OK, replace the faulty transmission range switch harness.

8. If there is no continuity between any terminals, remove the transmission range switch, and check the end of the selector control shaft (A).
9. The measurement of the selector control shaft end is within the standard, replace the transmission range switch. If the measurement is out of the standard, repair the selector control shaft end, and recheck the transmission range switch continuity.
