Shifter A/T: Testing and Inspection
SELECTOR LEVER OPERATION CHECK1. Apply the parking brake, and check that the selector lever moves smoothly and accurately to each range position.
2. Check that the engine starts when the selector lever is at the N or P position, and that it does not start when the selector lever is in any other position.
3. Start the engine, release the parking brake, and check that the vehicle moves forward when the selector lever is moved from N range to D, 3, 2 or L range or to 1st or 2nd gear in Sports mode, and that the vehicle reverses when the selector lever is moved to R range.
4. Stop the engine.
5. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position, and check that the backup lamp illuminates and the buzzer sounds when the selector lever is shifted from P to R range.
NOTE: The A/T mix-operation prevention mechanism is provided so that the selector lever cannot be moved from the P position if the ignition switch is at a position other than the LOCK (OFF) position and the brake pedal is not depressed.
