SHIFT LOCK STATUS
With the shift lock status, the shift lock solenoid is not energized,
so when the select operation of the selector lever is attempted,
no select operation is possible because the lock lever blocks the
lever assembly path.

When the ignition switch is ON, the selector lever is in the P
position, and the brake pedal is depressed, the shift lock
solenoid is energized to move the shift lock solenoid toward the
direction A shown in the figure. Then the lock lever linked to the
shift lock solenoid moves as shown in the figure, and no longer
blocks the lever sub assembly path when the select operation is
performed, enabling the operation.

RELEASE USING THE SHIFT LOCK RELEASE BUTTON

ZC6017720000

If the shift lock no longer operates properly due to a dead battery
or the like, pressing the shift lock release button enables shift
operation from the P position. The shift lock release button can
be operated by removing the cover (arrow-indicated point in the
figure) and pressing it with a flat-tipped screwdriver.Pressing the
shift lock release button moves the lock lever to the position
shown in the figure, enabling shift operation.
