Transmission Position Switch/Sensor: Service and Repair
Transmission Range Switch Replacement
1. Shift to N.
2. Remove the air cleaner assembly and the intake air duct.
3. Disconnect the transmission range switch connector, and remove the control shaft cover (A).
4. Remove the transmission range switch (B).
5. Move the control shaft from the P position to the N position by turning the selector control shaft using a 6.0 mm wrench.
NOTE: Do not use the selector control shaft to adjust the shift position. If the control shaft tips are squeezed together it will cause a faulty signal
or position due to play between the selector control shaft and the transmission range switch.
6. To set up a new transmission range switch (A), align the cutouts (B) on the rotary-frame with the neutral positioning cutouts (C) on the
transmission range switch. Then put a 2.0 mm (0.08 in.) feeler gauge blade (D) in the cutouts to hold the transmission range switch in the A/T
position.
NOTE: Be sure to use a 2.0 mm (0.08 in.) blade or equivalent to hold the transmission range switch in the N position.
