  3. Check for continuity between the No. 1 and No. 2 terminals of the O/D switch/shift lock solenoid/park pin switch connector while the shift lever is in the P position, and when shift lever out of P or pushed to the left.
    • In the P position, there should be no continuity.
    • When out of the P position or pushed to the left, there should be continuity.

    If the park pin switch is OK, connect the connector and install the removed parts.

    If the park pin switch is faulty, go to step 4 for replacement.

  4. Shift the shift lever to the R position.
  5. Slide the lock tab (A) down on the shift cable end holder (B).

  6. Grasp the shift cable lock (C) in the middle (D) with needle-nose pliers (E), and remove it from the shift cable end and shift cable end holder.
    NOTE: Do not pry the shift cable lock with a screwdriver, it may damage the shift cable end holder.
  7. Separate the shift cable end from the shift cable end holder.
  8. Rotate the socket holder (A) on the shift cable (B) a quarter turn; the tab (C) on the socket holder will be in the opening (D) of the socket holder bracket (E). Then slide the holder to remove the shift cable from the socket holder bracket.
    NOTE: Do not remove the shift cable by twisting the shift cable guide (F) and damper (G).
