1. Move the selector lever to the N position.
2. Loosen the adjusting nut, and set the manual

control lever upper and lower to the free condition.

3. Move the manual control lever lower to the neutral

position.

4. Loosen the inhibitor switch body mounting bolts,

and then turn the inhibitor switch body to align the
second hole from the end of the manual control
lever with the hole in the inhibitor switch body
flange (section A

− A).

NOTE: The inhibitor switch body can be aligned
by hand, because the manual control lever end is
as wide as the switch body flange. Alternatively,
the inhibitor switch can also be aligned by insert-
ing a 5-mm bar in the second hole from the end of
the manual control lever and the hole in the inhibi-
tor switch body flange.

CAUTION

Be careful not let the inhibitor switch body slip
out of place.

6. Gently push the transmission control cable in the

direction of the arrow to tighten the adjusting nut
to the specified torque.

7. Check that the selector lever is at the N position.
8. Check that the transmission shifts to the correct

range corresponding to the position of the selector
lever, and that it functions correctly in that range.

2. Use the jumper leads to connect CVT control

relay terminal 2 to the negative battery terminal
and terminal 1 to the positive battery terminal.

3. Check the continuity between CVT control relay

connector terminals 3 and 4 while alternately
connecting and disconnecting the jumper leads
from the battery terminals.

6. Measure the resistance between terminals 1 and

2 at each solenoid valve side.

Standard value: 2.9

CAUTION

The single shift control solenoid valve cannot be
removed nor replaced. If the shift control sole-
noid valve needs to be replaced, replace the
valve body assembly.
7. If not within the standard value, replace the

solenoid valve.

8. If within the standard value, check the harness

wire between CVT control solenoid valve
assembly connector and each solenoid valve
connector. If a problem is not found at the steps
above, check the solenoid valve O-rings and
replace if necessary.

flashing when the temperature drops below
approximately 135

C.

3. If the CVT fluid temperature sensor resistance

and the temperature when the N range indicator is
flashing or switched off are outside the standard
value ranges, replace the CVT fluid temperature
sensor.
