Skip Shift Solenoid

CIRCUIT OPERATION
The skip shift solenoid is used to prevent the operator from shifting into second or third gear under certain conditions.

Power for the solenoid is supplied on circuit F12. This circuit is HOT when the ignition switch is in the START and RUN position. The F12 circuit is protected by a 20 Amp fuse located in cavity 1 of the fuse block.

Ground for the solenoid is controlled by the Powertrain Control Module (PCM), on circuit K33. This circuit connects to cavity 6 of the PCM connector.

To energize the solenoid, the PCM provides a ground path for circuit K33.
