'1. Disconnect the 2P connector from
solenoid valve Ay'B assembly.
the shift control
Terminalsade ofmale terminals
Measure the resistance between the No. 1 terminal(solenoid valve A) of the shift control solenoid valve
connector and body ground, and between the No. 2terminal (solenoid valve B) and body ground.
STANDARD: 12 - 25 O
Replace the shift control solenoid valve A,/B assem-bly if the resistance is out of specification.
lf the resistance is within the standard. connect theNo, I terminal of the shift control solenoid valveconnector to the battery positive terminal. A clickingsound should be heard. Connect the No. 2 terminalto the battery positive te.minal. A clicking soundshould be heard. Replace the shift control solenoidvalve A/B assembly if no clicking sound is heardwhen either terminal is connected to the battervpositive terminal.

NOTE: Shift control solenoid valves A and B must beremoved/replaced as an assembly.
1. Remove the shift control solenoid cover.
2. Remove the mounting bolts, the clamp and the shiftcontrol solenoid valve Ay'B assembly, then disconnect
the connector.

Linear Solenoid Assembly
Test
1. Disconnect the linear solenoid connector.
LINEAR SOLENOIO
Measure the resistance between the No, 1 and the
No. 2 terminals.
STANDARD: About 5.0 o
lf the resistance is out of specification, replace the
linear solenoid assembly.
Connect the No. 1 terminal of the connector to the
battery positive terminal and the No. 2 terminal to
the battery negative terminal, A clicking sound
should be heard.
1.
lf a clicking sound is not heard, remove the linear
solenoid assembly.
Check the linear solenoid fluid passage for dust or
orn.
Connect the No. 1 terminal of the connector to the
battery positive terminal and the No. 2 te.minal to
the battery negative terminal. Make sure that the
valve moves.
Disconnect the negative battery terminal. and make
sure the valve releases. You can see valve move-
ment through the fluid passage in the mounting
surface of the linear solenoid assembly.

lf the valve binds, or moves sluggishly. or if the linear
solenoid does not operate, replace the linear solenoid

Interlock System
Interlock Control Unit Input Test
SRS components are located in this area. Review the SRS component locations, precautions, and procedures in the SRS
section (24) before performing repairs or service.
'1. Remove the instrument panel lower cover (see section 20).
2. Disconnect the 8P connector from the interlock control unit.
3. Inspect the connector and connector terminals to be sure they are all making good contact.
. lf the terminals are bent, loose, or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system
. lf the terminals look OK, make the following input tests at the connector.
- lf a test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system
- lf all the input tests prove OK, substitute a known-good control unit, and recheck the system. lf the check is OK,
the control unit must be faulty; replace it.
NOTE: lf the shift lock solenoid clicks when the ign ition switch is tu rned ON (ll) while pressing the brake pedal withthe
shift lever in E position, the shift lock system is OK. lf the shift lever cannot be shifted from E position. test the A/T
gear position switch.

'1. Remove the instrument panel lower cover (see sec-
tion 20).
2. Remove the steering column covers (see section 17).
3. Disconnect the shift lock solenoid 2P connector.
Connect the No. 1 terminal of the shift lock solenoid
connector to the battery positive tgrminal, and con-
nect the No. 2 terminal to the battery nogative ter-
mrnal.
Check that the shift lever can be moved from the E
oosition. Release the batterv terminals from the
shift lock solenoid connector. Move the shift lever
back to the E position, and make sure it locks.
NOTE: Do not connect power to the No. 2 (-) termi-
nal {reverse polarity) or you will damage the diode
inside the solenoid.

6. Check that the shift lock releases when the release
lever is pushed, and check that it locks when the
release lever is released,
7. lf the solenoid does not work, replace it.
