SHIFT LOCK SOLENOID CONNECTOR IG1 (YEL) SLS (PNK)
1. Connect the HDS to the DLC located under the
driver’s side of the dashboard.
2. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II). Make sure the HDS communicates with the PCM. If it does not, go
to the DLC circuit troubleshooting (see page
11-204).
3. Select Shift Lock Solenoid Test in the Miscellaneous Test Menu, and check that the shift
lock solenoid operates with the HDS.
Go to step 16.
Go to step 5.
4. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
5. Remove the center console (see page 20-92).
6. Disconnect the shift lock solenoid connector.
7. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II). 8. Measure the voltage between shift lock solenoid
connector terminal No. 1 and body ground.
Go to step 9.
CheckforablownNo.10(7.5A)fuseinthe
under-dash fuse/relay box. If the fuse is OK, repair
open in the wire between the shift lock solenoid
connector and the under-dash fuse/relay box.
9. Shift the shift lever to P, and press the brake pedal. Do not press the accelerator.
10. Measure the voltage between shift lock solenoid connector terminals No. 1 and No. 2 while pressing
the brake pedal.
Go to step 11.
Go to step 12.

Park Pin Switch Test
6. Apply silicone grease to the pin on the shift lever bracket base, and install the shift lock stop over the
pin.
7. Install the shift lock release spring and the shift lock release, apply silicone grease to shift lock release
mounting tip if necessary.
8. Apply silicone grease to the tip of the shift lock stop, and install the shift lock solenoid assembly by
aligning the joint of the shift lock solenoid plunger
with the tip of the shift lock stop.
9. Route the shift lock solenoid harness in the guide.
10. Install the shift lever assembly (see page 14-255). 1. Remove the center console (see page 20-92).
2. Move the shift lever to P, and check for continuity
between park pin switch/A/T gear position indicator
panel light connector terminals No. 3 and No. 4.
There should be no continuity.
3. Shift out of P, and check for continuity between connector terminals No. 3 and No. 4.
There should be continuity.
4. If the park pin switch tests OK, install the center console (see page 20-92).
If the park pin switch fails the test, replace the park
pin switch (see page 14-269).

the parking brake adjusting nut is loosened.
7. Clean the mating surfaces between the brake disc and the inside of the wheel, then install the rear
wheels.
8. Pull the parking brake lever 1 click.
9. Tighten the parking brake adjusting nut until the parking brakes drag slightly when the rear wheels
are turned.
10. Release the parking brake lever fully, and check that the parking brakes do not drag when the rear
wheels are turned. Readjust if necessary.
11. Make sure the parking brake lever is within the specified number of clicks (8 to 10 clicks).
12. Install the center console panel (see page 20-92).

NOTE: If both the ABS indicator and the brake system
indicator come on at the same time, check the ABS or
VSA system for DTC’s first: ABS (see page 19-49), VSA
(see page 19-97).
1. Remove the center console (see page 20-92).
2. Disconnect the parking brake switch connector (A) from the parking brake switch (B).
3. Check for continuity between the switch terminal (C) and body ground.
With the parking brake lever pulled, there s hould
be continuity.
With the parking brake lever released, there should be no continuity.
NOTE: If the parking brake switch and fluid level
switch are OK, but the brake system indicator does
not function, do the gauge control module self-
diagnostic function (see page 22- 241).
4. Reconnect the parking brake switch connector.
5. Reinstall the center console (see page 20-92). 1. Disconnect the brake fluid level switch connector.
2. Check for continuity between the terminals (1) and
(2) with the float in the down position and in the up
position.
NOTE: Remove the brake fluid completely from the reservoir. With the float down, there should be
continuity.
Fill the reservoir with brake fluid to the MAX (upper) level (A). With the float up, there should
be no continuity.
If both the ABS indicator and the brake system indicator come on at the same time, check the
ABS or VSA system for DTC’s first: ABS
(see page 19-49), VSA (see page 19-97).
If the parking brake switch and fluid level switch are OK, but brake system indicator does not
function, do the gauge control module self-
diagnostic function (see page 22-241).
3. Reconnect the brake fluid l evel switch connector.
