A = Applied H = Holding ON = The solenoid is energized. OFF = The solenoid is de-energized. Shift Solenoid state is a function of vehicle speed and may change if the vehicle speed increases sufficiently in Park, Reverse or Neutral. However, this does not affect the operation of the transmission. Manual Second-First gear is electronically prevented under normal operating conditions. **Manual First-Second gear is only available above approximately 48-56 km/h (30-35 mph).

When to See a Mechanic

Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:

• You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
• Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
• The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
• You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
• You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
