Kickdown Switch

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The kick-down switch is turned on when the accelerator pedal is depressed beyond the full throttle opening and sends signals to the Engine Control Module (ECM). When the kick-down switch is turned on, the ECM controls gear shifting according to the programmed shift diagrams. If a short circuit develops in the kick-down switch, the ECM disregards the kick-down signals and controls shifting at the normal shift points.
