Under all of the following conditions, the shift lock solenoid is energized, allowing the selector lever to move from the P position to another position.
- Ignition switch: ON
- P position detection switch: ON (the selector lever is in the P position)
- Stop lamp switch: ON (brake pedal is depressed)

With the shift lock status, the shift lock solenoid is not energized, so when the select operation of the selector lever is attempted, no select operation is possible because the lock lever blocks the lever assembly path.

When the ignition switch is ON, the selector lever is in the P position, and the brake pedal is depressed, the shift lock solenoid is energized to move the shift lock solenoid toward the direction A shown in the figure. Then the lock lever linked to the shift lock solenoid moves as shown in the figure, and no longer blocks the lever sub assembly path when the select operation is performed, enabling the operation.

If the shift lock no longer operates properly due to a dead battery or the like, pressing the shift lock release button enables shift operation from the P position. The shift lock release button can be operated by removing the cover (arrow-indicated point in the figure) and pressing it with a flat-tipped screwdriver. Pressing the shift lock release button moves the lock lever to the position shown in the figure, enabling shift operation.
