Shift Lock System: Inspection

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Toyota Land Cruiser. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

INSPECT KEY INTER LOCK SOLENOID

Measure the resistance of the solenoid.

Standard resistance

TERMINALS RESISTANCE SPECIFICATION

Tester Connection	Specified Condition
5 (SLS+) - 4 (SLS-)	20 to 27 Ω

If the result is not as specified, replace the solenoid.

Apply positive (+) battery voltage between the terminals. Check that sounds are emitted from the operating solenoid.
If sounds are not emitted, replace the solenoid.

HINT:

If sounds are not emitted from the solenoid, the solenoid is not operating.

INSPECT SHIFT LOCK CONTROL SWITCH

Measure the resistance of the switch.

Standard resistance

TERMINALS RESISTANCE SPECIFICATION

Tester Connection	Shift Lever Position	Specified Condition
3 (P1) - 2 (P)	P (shift lock release button is not pushed	Below 1 Ω
3 (P1) - 2 (P)	P (shift lock release button is pushed	Below 1 Ω
1 (P2) - 2 (P)	R, N, D, 2, L	Below 1 Ω

If the result is not as specified, replace the switch.

INSPECT KEY INTERLOCK SOLENOID

Measure the resistance of the solenoid.

Standard resistance

TERMINALS RESISTANCE SPECIFICATION

Tester Connection	Specified Condition
1 (KLS-) - 2 (KLS+)	12 to 17 Ω

If the result is not as specified, replace the key interlock solenoid.

Connect the battery's positive (+) terminal to terminal 2 (KLS+) and the battery's negative (-) terminal to terminal 1 (KLS-). Check that sounds are emitted from the operating solenoid.
If sounds are not emitted, replace the solenoid.

HINT:

If sounds are not emitted from the solenoid, the solenoid is not operating.
