Description






DESCRIPTION





The Brake Transmission Shifter/Ignition Interlock (BTSI) is a cable operated system that prevents the transmission gear shifter from being moved out of PARK without the proper driver inputs. The system also contains a solenoid that is integral to the shifter assembly. The solenoid works in conjunction with the park lock cable to permit shifter movement out of PARK when the brake is depressed.


A BTSI override (2) is provided on the side of the shifter mechanism (1) to allow the vehicle to be shifted out of PARK in the event of an electrical failure.
