  2. Check the Park Pin Switch signal with the HDS in the A/T data list while the shift lever is in P, and when the shift lever is shifted to any position other than P.
    NOTE: If the HDS does not communicate with the PCM, troubleshoot the DLC circuit (see DLC CIRCUIT TROUBLESHOOTING )..
  3. Check that the park pin switch signal is OFF while the shift lever is in P, and signal is ON when the shift lever is shifted out of P.
  4. If the park pin switch signal is OK, test is complete, disconnect the HDS. If the signal is incorrect, go to step 5, and test the switch signal at the park pin switch/A/T gear position indicator panel light connector.
  5. Remove the driver's center console lower cover (see step 4 on CENTER CONSOLE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .
  6. Disconnect the park pin switch/A/T gear position indicator panel light connector.

  7. Shift the shift lever into P, and check for continuity between the park pin switch/A/T gear position indicator panel light connector terminals No. 1 and No. 2. There should be no continuity.
  8. Shift out of P, and check for continuity between the connector terminals No. 1 and No. 2. There should be continuity.
  9. If the park pin switch tests OK, connect the connector and install the console lower cover (see step 4 under CENTER CONSOLE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION ).

    If the park pin switch fails the test, replace the park pin switch (see PARK PIN SWITCH REPLACEMENT ).
