External Controls
Description and Operation
Introduction
Operator gearshift control is effected by:
The selector lever Accelerator pedal position Kickdown The mode switch
Operator's Selector Module ('J' Gate)

ItemPart NumberDescription
1—Gear selector lever
2—Access blank - Gear-shift interlock solenoid
3—Connector - DLS
4—Dual Linear Switch (DLS)
5—Connector - Park position switch
6—Connector - Illumination module

Selector lever:
Gear selector positions are:
P Transmission mechanically locked, starting available * R Reverse gear N Neutral gear, no power to the rear wheels (starting available) D Drive gear, all 5 forward gears available (see Performance Mode Pushbutton) 4 Upshift to 4th gear only 3 Upshift to 3rd gear only 2 Upshift to 2nd gear only
Gearshift Interlock Manual Override*
The interlock system which locks the sele ctor in P and prevents the ignition key from being removed except when P is
selected, may be manually overridden in the event of an emergency.
1. 1. With the parking brake applied
2. 2. Remove the access blank using a suitable Torx bit
3. 3. Insert a small screwdriver into the vacated hole
4. 4. Push the screwdriver downwards, gently, and hold whilst simultaneously moving the selector from P towards R ,
but do not engage R until the tool has been removed
5. 5. An audible warning may be heard when operation 4 is carried out
6. 6. With the selector in N and the access bl ank replaced, the vehicle may be started
Range Selection
The selector lever transmits operator demand to the transmission and TCM by means of a cable and Dual-Linear
Switch (DLS).
The lever operates the transmission assemb ly selector shaft, only for P R N D , by means of a cable. Movement of the
lever across the gate to 4, 3 and 2 positions disengages th e cable from the selector lever and engages the DLS which
controls gear selection electronically.
Gear selector module:
Provides illumination of the decal relevant to the gear sele cted. This information is provided by CAN from the TCM. Illuminates the security system Active LED on the gear selector surround, in response to an output from the BPM.
Transmission Switches
Performance Mode Pushbutton
7—Connector - Climate control
8—Solenoid - Gear selector
9—Security system Active LED

The performance mode pushbutton:
Is mounted on the 'J' gate surround. This 'push-on push-off' swit ch selects Normal or Sport mode ( push-on for Sport) Is illuminated when Sport mode is selected. Is hard-wired to the transmission control module.
With 'Normal' selected the transmissi on will start off in 2 nd gear with kickdown to 1 st being available.
'Sport' mode allows 1 st gear en gagement from rest and modifies values in the TCM shift point calculations to provide higher
upshift speeds and enhanced availability of downshifts.
Kickdown Switch

The kickdown switch:
Is floor mounted under th e accelerator pedal. Is operated by pressing the pedal beyond the full throttle position. Provides maximum acceleration on driver demand, by signalling the TCM to select the lowest gear to give maximum
wheel torque.
Gear selector interlock solenoid:
Prevents the gear selector lever from being moved from P , unless the ignition switch is in position II, and the brake
pedal is depressed.
Is controlled by an output from the BPM
Park position switch:
Is hard-wired to the BPM Detects when the gear selector lever is moved to the Park position

Dual-Linear Switch (DLS)
The TCM detects gear selection by means of a switch fitted to the 'J' gate; the DLS contains two multi-track slider switches,
of which the upper controls P R N D and the lower 4 3 2 .
Output from the DLS is changed as the select or lever is moved, thus indicating selected gear position. The parallel signal is
input to the TCM by 4 discrete logic wires W0, W1, W2 and W3. The particular sequence, or gray code, will indicate which
shift position is selected, as shown in the following table where 0 = low and 1 = high:

Transmission Unit Gear Selector

The gear selector at the transmission unit:
Is connected to the operator's selector module by cable Operates the selector valve, at the electro-hydraulic control unit
