Electrical BTSI Actuator

REMOVAL
Remove or disconnect the following:
1. Negative (-) battery cable.
2. Disable the Supplemental Inflatable Restraint (SIR) system
3. Tilt column to "CENTER" position.
4. Electrical (BTSI) actuator (61) from column.
A. Column in "NEUTRAL" position.
B. Pry (BTSI) actuator (61) from mounting pin on steering column jacket assembly (58) and outer shift cable ball stud on cable shift cam assembly (44).
C. Axial position assurance connector (23) from electrical connector.
^ Electrical connector from (BTSI) actuator (61).









5. Adjust the Electrical (BTSI) Actuator (61).
A. Move actuator rod to adjuster block side for leverage.
B. Press on adjuster block to compress internal adjuster spring and disengage the adjuster teeth.
C. Slide the adjuster block as far away from the solenoid as possible.
D. Replace actuator rod to solenoid side.

INSTALLATION
Install or connect the following:
1. Electrical (BTSI) actuator (61) to column.
A. Column in "Neutral" position.
B. (BTSI) actuator (61) to mounting pin on steering column jacket assembly (58) and outer shift cable ball stud on cable shift cam assembly (44).
C. Electrical connector to (BTSI) actuator (61).
^ Axial position assurance connector (23) to electrical connector.
2. If all service operation are completed, enable the SIR system.
3. Negative (-) battery cable.

4. Inspect the following:
^ Function check Electrical (BTSI) actuator (61) for proper operation.
^ Actuator (61) must lock gearshift lever when ever steering column is in "PARK" position and when trying to shift from "PARK" position without pressing brake pedal. (Solenoid is energized)
^ Actuator (61) must release gearshift lever when pressure is applied to brake pedal. (Solenoid is de-energized)
^ Readjust if needed.
