Inspection [06/2018 - ]: Procedure
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2024 Lexus ES 350, 2023 Lexus ES 350, 2022 Lexus ES 350, 2021 Lexus ES 350, and 2020 Lexus ES 350. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- INSPECT PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH ASSEMBLY NOTE:
Both the park/neutral position switch assembly and transmission control shaft lever are available in two different shapes due to design changes. As they are not compatible with each other, when replacing the park/neutral position switch assembly, make sure to also replace the transmission control shaft lever as a set.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below when the transmission control shaft lever is moved to each position.
