Checking the P-shift lock solenoid
- Ignition on
- Gear selector in position P
- Try moving the gear selector to another position without depressing the brake pedal. It should not be possible to move the gear selector
- Depress the brake pedal and try moving the gear selector to another position. It should now be possible to move the gear selector.
Was the function OK?
Yes - Intermittent fault
No - Checking the wiring and component
-------------------------------------------------
Checking the wiring and component
Check the cable between the control module for the gear selector and the shift lock solenoid connector (control module side). Check for an open-circuit according to Checking wiring and terminals. Permanent fault Checking Wiring and Terminals. Permanent Fault.
Check the voltage between terminals #1 and #2 on the solenoid connector (female half).
When the brake pedal is not depressed the voltage should be 0 V. When the brake pedal is depressed the voltage should be battery voltage.
Replace the solenoid if the voltage is OK.

Fault-tracing information
The fault should have been detected and remedied. As this is not the case fault-tracing has failed.
Exit fault-tracing for this diagnostic trouble code (DTC) or make another attempt.

Intermittent fault
Check the control module for the gear selector and the solenoid connectors. Check for intermittent contact resistance according to Checking wiring and terminals. Intermittent faults Checking Wiring and Terminals. Intermittent Faults.
Check the cable between the control module for the gear selector and the shift lock solenoid. Check for an intermittent open-circuit according to Checking wiring and terminals. Intermittent faults Checking Wiring and Terminals. Intermittent Faults.
Remedy as necessary.
