1) Shift manual select lever (4) to “N” range.
2) Check that needle direction shaped on lock washer (2) and “N” reference line (1) on transmission range
sensor are aligned. If not, loosen sensor bolts (3)
and align them.
Tightening torque
Transmission range sensor bolt (a): 5.5 N·m (
0.55 kgf-m, 4.0 lb-ft)
3) Check that engine starts in “N” and “P” ranges but it doesn’t start in “D”, “2”, “L” or “R” range. Also, check
that back-up lamp lights in “R” range.
If faulty condition cannot be corrected by adjustment,
disconnect transmission range sensor connector

Inspection
Brake discs
Dry and inspect them for pitting, burn flaking, significant
wear, glazing, cracking, charring and chips or metal
particles imbedded in lining.
If discs show any of the ab ove conditions, replacement
is required.
NOTE
• If disc lining is exfoliated or discolored, replace all discs.
• Before assembling new discs, soak them in A/T fluid for at least two hours.

Brake separator plates and retaining plates
Dry plates and check for discol oration. If plate surface is
smooth and even color smear is indicated, plate should
be reused. If severe heat spot discoloration or surface
scuffing is indicated, plate must be replaced.
Brake return spring subassembly
Measure free length of each brake return spring
subassembly.
Evidence of extreme heat or burning in the area of clutch
may have caused springs to take heat set and would
require their replacement.
Free length of 1st & reverse brake return spring
subassembly
“a”: 21.71 mm (0.855 in.)
Free length of 2nd brake return spring subassembly
“a”: 15.85 mm (0.624 in.)
NOTE
• Do not apply excessive force when measuring spring free length.
• Perform measurement at several points.
