External Controls
The transmission selector lever cable transfers the transmission operating mode from the selector lever to the automatic transmission. The indicated position of the transmission selector lever is transferred to the transmission through the steering column shift selector tube, then to the cable and down to the manual control lever on the transmission.

Shift Interlock System
The shift interlock system prevents the shifting from PARK unless the brake pedal is depressed. The shift interlock system consists of a shift interlock actuator mounted at the base of the steering column tube. If the ignition switch is in the RUN position, the shift interlock actuator is continually ON unless the brake pedal is depressed.

Transmission Control (TC) Switch

NOTE: On some models the indicator is located on the end of the transmission control selector lever and on other models it is located on the instrument panel.

The transmission control (TC) switch is a momentary contact switch that is located on the end of the transmission control selector lever.

Pushing the TC switch will either disengage or engage the TOW/HAUL function of the transmission. If TOW/HAUL is disengaged, the word OFF will illuminate on the indicator.
