TEST PROCEDURE 7 – Neutral Lockout Limit Switch
See General Warning on page 1-1.
This switch is located on the Forward/Reverse switch assembly. A black/light blue wire, a gray wire, and a tan wire
are connected to this limit switch.
1.
Disconnect battery and spark plug wire(s).
See Disconnecting the Battery – Gasoline Vehicles, Section
2.
Check for proper wiring and tight connections.
3.
Set the multimeter to 200 ohms. Place the red (+) probe of the multimeter on the common (COM) terminal of
the limit switch. Place the black (–) probe on the normally open (NO) terminal of the switch. Without the lever
pressed, the reading should be no continuity. Press the lever, and the reading should be continuity. If either
reading is incorrect, replace the limit switch
.
4.
Check to be sure the lobe on the cam is pressing the neutral lockout limit switch as the Forward/Reverse shifter is
being shifted. The limit switch should make an audible click as it is pressed. If it does not, check for wear on the
cam lobe and replace cam if necessary.
