Skip Shift Solenoid
SKIP SHIFT SOLENOID - PCM OUTPUTSkip Shift Solenoid, Reverse Lockout Solenoid, Vehicle Speed Sensor:
The skip shift solenoid prevents the operator from shifting into second or third gear during certain conditions. The PCM controls the skip shift solenoid. The PCM locks out second and third gear when all of the following conditions are met:
- Engine coolant exceeds 41°C (106°F)
- Vehicle speed is between 12 and 18 MPH
- Engine operating above 608 RPM
- The PCM verified first gear speed/RPM
- Throttle position sensor (TPS) signal is less than 0.068 volt above closed throttle (23 percent throttle opening)
The solenoid resets when vehicle speed drops below 2 MPH.
