CHART C-8B - MANUAL TRANSMISSION SHIFT LIGHT CHECK
Circuit Description:
The ECM uses information from the following inputs to control the Shift light:
^

The ECM uses the measured RPM and the vehicle speed to calculate what gear the vehicle is in. It's this calculation that determines when the Shift light
should be turned on.
