ELECTRICAL SYSTEM COMPONENTS Continuity 1. On level ground, jack up the vehicle and support it evenly on safety stands. 2. Disconnect the select lever from the manual shaft. 3. Disconnect the parwneutral switch connector. 4. Check continuity of the terminals. 0---0: Indicates continuity 5. If not correct, adjust the parwneutral switch. 6. If correct, check or adjust the selector lever. (Refer to page K-163.) Adjustment 1. Move the manual shaft to N position. 2. Loosen the parwneutral switch mounting Nuts. 3. Remove the screw on the switch body and move the parkheutral switch so that the screw hole is aligned with the small hole inside the switch. Check their alignment -i by inserting a 2.0mm (0.079 in) diameter pin through the holes. 4. Tighten the mounting nuts and remove the pin. Tightening torque: 5.0--6.8 N-m (50-70 kgfacm, 44--60 in-lbf) 5. Install and tighten the screw in the switch body. 6. Check the continuity of the parwneutral switch. 7. If not correct, replace the parklneutral switch. 8. Connect the selector lever. Tightening torque: 45-63 N.m (4.5-6.5 kgf-m, 33--47 ft-lbf) Gartner Banana
