Transmission Position Sensor/Switch: Testing and Inspection

1st-hold Switch Test/Replacement
1. Remove the console panel and center console.
2. Disconnect the switch assembly connector (6P).





3. Shift the shift lever into the 1 position, then check for continuity between the No. 1 and No. 3 terminals. There should be continuity.
4. Shift the shift lever out of the 1 position, and check for continuity between the terminals in step 3. There should be no continuity.
5. If the 1st-hold, switch is faulty, remove the shift lever assembly, and replace the detent bracket. (The 1st-hold switch is not available separately).
