Specification
4. If not as specified, replace the neutral switch. If neutral switch is okay but PID value is out of specification, inspect as follows:
Open circuit
- Power circuit (Neutral switch connector terminal A and PCM connector terminal 1V through common connector.)
- Ground circuit (Neutral switch connector terminal B and ground through common connector.)
Short circuit
- Neutral switch connector terminal A and PCM connector terminal 1V through common connector to ground.
5. Reconnect the neutral switch connector.
