         DESCRIPTION

         Shift interlock system inhibits shift selector lever movement

from "P" to drive ranges unless brake pedal is depressed. Key

interlock system prevents ignition switch turning to LOCK position

unless shift selector lever is in "P" position.

         TESTING

         KEY INTERLOCK SYSTEM

         1) With ignition switch in LOCK position and brake pedal

depressed, ensure selector lever cannot be moved from "P" to any other

position. Ensure selector lever button cannot be pushed. With ignition

switch in ACC position, brake pedal depressed and selector lever

button pushed, ensure selector lever can be moved from "P" position to

any other position. Ensure selector lever moves smoothly.

         2) Ensure ignition key cannot be turned to LOCK position at

all selector lever positions other than "P". Ensure ignition key turns

smoothly to LOCK position when selector lever is set to "P" and

selector lever button is released. If key interlock system is not as

specified, adjust key interlock cable. See KEY INTERLOCK CABLE under

ADJUSTMENTS.

         1) With ignition switch in ACC position, brake pedal released

and selector lever button pushed, ensure selector lever cannot be

position.

         2) With selector lever in "R" position, ignition switch in

ACC position, brake pedal released and selector button pushed, ensure

system is not as specified, adjust shift lock cable. See SHIFT LOCK

CABLE under ADJUSTMENTS.
