Key Lock Cylinders
Lubricate the key lock cylinders with the lubricant
specified in Part
D.
Body Lubrication
Lubricate all body door hinges. Also lubricate all hinges
and latches, including those for the hood, rear compartment,
console door and any folding seat hardware. Part
D tells
you what
to use. More fiequent lubrication may be required
when exposed to a corrosive environment.
Starter Switch
NOTE: Do not use the accelerator pedal, and be
ready to turn off the engine immediately if it starts.
3. On automatic transmission vehicles, try to start the
engine in each gear. The starter should work only in
PARK
(P) or NEUTRAL (N). If the starter works in
any other position, your vehicle needs service.
On manual transmission vehicles, put the shift lever
in NEUTRAL
(N), push the clutch down halfway
and
try to start the engine. The starter should work
only when the clutch is pushed down all the way to
the floor. If the starter works when the clutch isn’t
pushed all the way down, your vehicle needs service.

Parking Brake and Automatic Transmission PARK
(P) Mechanism Check
3.
NOTE: Be ready to apply the regular brake
immediately if the vehicle begins to move.
With the engine off, turn the key
to the RUN
position, but don’t start the engine. Without applying
the regular brake, try to move the shift lever out
of
PARK (P) with normal effort. If the shift lever
moves out of PARK (P), your vehicle’s BTSI needs
service.
Steering Column Lock
While parked, and with the parking brake set, try to turn
the key to LOCK in each shift lever position.
With an automatic transmission, the key should turn
to LOCK only when the shift lever is in PARK
(P).
0 With a manual transmission, the key should turn to
LOCK only when the shift lever is in REVERSE (R).
On vehicles with
a key release button, try to turn the key
to LOCK without pressing the button. The key should
turn to LOCK only with the key button depressed.
On all vehicles, the key should come out only in LOCK. Park on a fairly
steep hill, with the vehicle facing
downhill. Keeping your foot on the regular brake, set the
parking brake.
To check the parking brake: With the engine running
and transmission in NEUTRAL
(N), slowly remove
foot pressure from the regular brake pedal.
Do this
until the vehicle is held by the parking brake only.
To check the PARK (P) mechanism’s holding ability:
Shift to PARK (P). Then release all brakes.
Underbody Flushing
At least every spring, use plain water to flush any corrosive
materials from the underbody. Take care to clean thoroughly any areas where mud and other debris can collect.
