The Selector Lever Lock Solenoid -N110- locks the selector lever in the position "P". The selector lever can be shifted out of "P " with ignition on or motor started, separate brake pedal and pressed button on the selector lever head. Refer to GEARSHIFT MECHANISM, CHECKING .
It is not possible to move the selector lever out of "P" if the voltage supply to the Shift Lock Solenoid -N110- is interrupted (the battery is discharged or a fuse is faulty) or if the solenoid is faulty. The vehicle cannot be moved because the parking lock is set.

If this is not the case:

-- Check the fuses. Refer to the Appropriate Systems Wiring Diagram.

-- Check the battery voltage. Refer to BATTERY .

NOTE:

If the selector lever still cannot switch out of "P", the emergency release of the solenoid must be executed. If the selector lever is then switched back into "P", this is locked again in the position "P".
