Installation Procedure
- Install the park/neutral back up switch to the transmission manual shaft by aligning the switch hub flats with the manual shaft flats.
- Slide the switch onto the transmission manual shaft until the switch mounting bracket contacts the mounting bosses on the transmission.
- Loosely install the 2 park/neutral back up switch bolts.
- Position the J 41364-A onto the park/neutral back up switch. Ensure that the 2 slots on the switch where the manual shaft is inserted are lined up with the lower 2 tabs on the tool.
- Rotate the switch until the upper locator pin on the tool is lined up with the slot on the top of the switch.
Tighten: Tighten the park/neutral back up switch bolts 27 N.m (20 lb ft).
- Remove the J 41364-A from the switch. If installing a new switch, remove the positive assurance bracket at this time.
- Connect the electrical connector (3) to the switch (4).
- Install the transmission control lever to the manual shaft with the nut.
Tighten: Tighten the control lever nut to 20 N.m (15 lb ft).
- Lower the vehicle.
- Adjust the automatic transmission range selector cable. Refer to Range Selector Lever Cable Adjustment (3.7L) or Range Selector Lever Cable Adjustment (5.3L) .
- Check the switch for proper operation. The engine must start in the P (PARK) or N (NEUTRAL) positions only. If proper operation of the switch can not be obtained, replace the switch.
IMPORTANT:
If a new switch is being installed, the switch will come with a positive assurance bracket. The positive assurance bracket aligns the new switch in the proper position for installation and the use of the J 41364-A
will not be necessary.
