5. Check lor 8n op€n in the BLKMHT wire circuit be-
tween the staner and ignition switch, and con-
nectors.
6. Check the ignition switch (see page 23-70).
7, On cars with automatic transmission, check the A/Tgear position switch (neutral position switchl and
connector. On cars with manualtransmission, check
the staner cut relay, clutch interlock switch, and
connectors.
NOTE: Check the No. 39 (5O A) fuse in the under-hood
fuse/relay box for the starter cut relay.
Check tor Woar and Damago:
The starter should crank the engine smoothly and stead-
ily. lf th€ startsr engages, but cranks the engine errati-
cally, remove it. Inspect the starter, drive gear, and
flywheel ring gesr for damage.
a Check the drive gear overunning clutch for binding
or slipping when the armature is rotated with the drivegear held. Replace the gesrs if damaged.
Check Cranking Voltago 8nd Current Draw:
Cranking voltage should be no less than 8.O volts.
Current draw should be no more than 360 amperes.
lf cranking voltag€ is too low, or current draw too high,
check for:
a Fully charged battery
a Open circuit in starter armature commutatot segments
a Starter armature dragging
a Shoned armature winding
a Excessive drag in engine
Chack Cranking rpm:
Engine spsod during cranking should be above 1O0 rpm.
lf spe6d is too low, ch€ck for:
a Loose battsry or starter teminals
a Excessively worn starter brushes
a Open circuit in commutator segments
a Dirty or damaged helical spline or drive gear
a Defective drive gear overrunning clutch
Chock StErtor Disongagomoni:
Press the clutch pedal allth€ way in (M/T), turn the ioni-
tion switch to "lll" and rolease to "11".
The starter drive gear should disengage from the tlywheel
ring gear. When you rolease the key.
lf the drive gear hangs up on th€ flywheel ring gear, check
for:
a Solenoid plunger and switch malfunction
a Dirty drive gear assembly or damaged overrunning
clutch

Descraption
The car is squippod with thq following dovlc6. to prevont inadvoft.nt shitting:
a A/T selector with shift locka Key cylinder with interlocked ignition key
Shift Lock Syst6m;
The shitt lock system prevents the shift lever from moving to @ or lDil from the @ position unless the brake pedalis depressed and the accelerator is in its rest oosition.
NOTE:
a The shift lever cannot be shifted when the brake pedsl and the accelerator are depressed on at the same time.a In case ot system malfunction, the shift lever can be released by pushing a key into the release slot near the shift lever.
Koy Ints.lock Systsm:
The ignition key cannot be removed from the ignition switch unless the shil-t lever is in the E positionWhen the shift lever is in any position other than @, a sol€noid is activated, making it impossible for the key to be re-moved until the shift lever is moved to the llj position.

Control Unit Input Test
Oisconnect the 8-P connector from the interlock control
unit. Check for good contact between the connector and
socket terminals. lf the terminals 8re OK, make Iollow-
ing input tests at the connector. lf all input tests are OK,
but the problem remains, replace the cont.ol unit,
NOTE: lf the shilt lock solenoid clicks when the ignition
switch is ON and the brake pedal is pushed (shift tever
is in lfl position, accelerator is in rest position), the shiftlock system is electronically normal; test the A/T gear
positaon switch as described on page 23- 134.
